Jones Act Case
DI understands the main investigative goal of maritime employment accidents is to determine if the employee was in the course and scope of their employment as a seaman. A seaman is defined as a person who has substantial connection with a vessel. Further, the duties contribute to the "work of the vessel" in navigation or commerce. Finally, the vessel must be in navigation. This means the vessel is in navigable waters and it moves about.
We have worked consistently thru the years to develop an agency who has earned a successful reputation for professional investigations through integrity, investigative excellence and technical strengths.
DI understands that, (The Jones Act), applies to inland river workers as well as offshore workers who work on a jackup rig, semi-submersible ship or rig, barge, drill ship, tug and towboat, crew boat, drill ship, dredge, floating crane, tanker, cargo ship, fishing vessel, chemical ship, research vessel, construction barge, lay barge, motorized platform, diving vessel, cruise ship, recreational boat or other floating / movable structures.
