There's two areas of the law that I think separate Shor and Levin from other Workers' Compensation firms.
One is, our knowledge, expertise regarding Maritime jobs. There are law firms that only handle Maritime cases and then there are law firms that handle all kinds of Workers' Compensation cases.
And, what we've found with Maritime cases, the most dangerous Maritime jobs include the jobs of
a commercial fisherman, obviously, working on off-shore oil rigs, tug boats, oil tankers, barges, any kind of ocean going vessels and even a Maritime claim involving people who are aboard employees, as well as passengers, aboard cruise ships.
It's very important that if you fall into one of the categories and your injury occurred in the course of your employment, in one of those areas I just mentioned, that you contact a lawyer who concentrates in Maritime law, or who can direct who someone who does.
