Maritime work in and around Galveston is dangerous. From offshore rigs in the Gulf of Mexico to cargo operations at the port, serious injuries happen when safety protocols fail. Gilman & Allison, LLP represents injured maritime workers and passengers in complex claims under federal maritime law.
We handle cases involving:
Jones Act seamen injuries (crew members hurt on vessels)
Longshore and harbor worker claims (LHWCA / 905(b))
Offshore platform and drilling accidents
Cruise ship and passenger injuries departing Galveston
Vessel negligence, unsafe equipment, and unseaworthy conditions
Maritime claims are different from standard injury cases. They often involve federal law, strict deadlines, and unique remedies such as maintenance and cure, lost wages, and long-term disability damages. We act quickly to preserve evidence and build claims that maximize recovery.
