Our Maritime & Jones Act Lawyers are proud to announce the recovery of a $16 Million settlement for our client, a floorhand who suffered serious back and neck injuries while working for one of the largest maritime companies in the United States.
Our client was working in the moonpool of an offshore drillship in the Gulf of Mexico when, due to the negligence of his co-workers, he sustained significant injuries to his back and neck.
The Defendant fought liability and attempted to minimize the extent of our client’s injuries and damages. However, after our maritime attorneys prepared the case for trial and demonstrated the full impact of the company’s negligence, the case settled shortly before trial for $16,000,000.
The settlement is the largest maritime injury settlement in Texas in 2025 and will help ensure that our client and his family are financially protected for the rest of their lives.
