Admiralty law and maritime law are specialized areas of the law that regulate accidents onboard ships, yachts, barges and boats. Some cases involving slip-and-fall accidents, theft, physical or sexual assaults, and other maritime-related hazards can be complex and require in-depth pre-trial assessment and discovery.

Our Anchorage Jones Act Lawyers Have More Than 75 Years of Combined Legal Experience
The Jones Act is a maritime law that applies to accidents on ships, offshore oil rigs and other sea-going vessels such as barges, riverboats and fishing boats. Negligence, contributory negligence and other issues can be the key to a Jones Act case, and we have significant experience evaluating the issues involved with our clients' Jones Act cases.
In many cases, we are able to settle our clients' cases out of court because we are diligent in our efforts to locate and analyze the evidence that will support our claims. But we do not hesitate to aggressively litigate and we have a strong track record of trial successes.
We look forward to the opportunity to speak with you about your case.
