Boat Accidents and Injuries Attorney
If you were injured at sea, whether you were working on a ship or relaxing on a recreational boat, you need qualified legal representation to recover compensation for your injuries. Injuries on a ship are covered under maritime law, which is quite different from the law that covers personal injuries on land. An experienced and knowledgeable maritime injury attorney will understand these differences.
At the Bluestein Law Firm, P.A., in Charleston, South Carolina, attorney S. Scott Bluestein is well prepared to help you get the compensation you deserve from the insurance companies. He holds not only a law degree, but also a Masters in Admiralty Law from Tulane University. To schedule a free consultation, contact us online or call 843-577-3092.
