Hello, I'm maritime attorney Tim Young. I want to speak to you for a minute about working
overseas. We've represented a lot of clients who have been injured when working overseas
on vessels or oil rigs. A lot of times these clients come to our office and ask "Does the
Jones Act even apply to me? I'm working over in India; I'm injured in a bus accident or
I'm working in Nigeria and some rebels board the rig and they end up capturing us. Does
the Jones Act even apply to situations like those?" Well, I can tell you it absolutely
does. We've personally handled cases exactly like that. Now, if you have any questions
about whether the Jones Act is going to apply to you if you're an overseas working go ahead
and give us a call. You can also download our wonderful book, which explains your rights,
and choices, and options as an overseas worker. We're going to send you the overseas book
that we've written, which discusses ways you can protect yourself if you're an overseas
maritime worker. Thank you.
