Maritime Claims

Based in New Orleans, Louisiana, The Young Firm has handled hundreds of maritime claims on behalf of seriously injured maritime workers. Maritime claims have always formed a significant core for our practice. These claims have typically involved debilitating injuries including burns, brain injuries, permanent disablement of arms and legs, back and neck injuries and other life changing disabilities.

We have experience representing multiple claimants involved in mass disasters. We have helped individuals burned during the Black Elk Platform explosion in 2012. When multiple seamen were injured after their ship was struck while they were working, The Young Firm helped. After several individuals were injured when their fishing charter boat struck an unlit gas platform, The Young Firm fought to win a multiple 8 figure verdict, including punitive damages.

We can help you too.

“Even after it’s all said and done, The Young Firm is still there and are like new members to the family. Tim Young helped me out a lot and I could move forward with my life from here because of him. I appreciate everything they did for me. And I really mean that.”
