Maritime and Jones Act Lawyers/ Serious Injury Lawyers

Many law firms try to handle any type of case that comes along. At The Young Firm, we focus only on maritime/jones act claims and very serious vehicle accident cases. That's what we do. And we only represent injured people.

Why do so many lawyers advertise for every possible type of case? Can they really be good at divorce cases, criminal cases, auto accidents, medical malpractice AND maritime claims? Does any doctor try to be an expert at more than one area of medicine? Our office focuses on maritime/jones act claims, and serious vehicle accidents. Both of these types of claims require serious litigators who know how (1) to prepare a case for trial (often in federal court), and (2) actually try the case if a fair settlement is not offered. Make sure your lawyer is not learning the law for the first time with your case.
