Pick a time below and an intake member from Armstrong Lee & Baker will call you.
If the company is asking you to give a recorded statement, see the company doctor, or sign paperwork — those requests are usually about protecting the company, not you. And maintenance and cure — the daily living expenses and medical care your employer may owe you regardless of fault — should start now, not after the claim is settled. A free call before you sign anything protects rights you can’t get back later.
Armstrong Lee & Baker is a Texas trial law firm with offices in Houston and Dallas. We represent injured offshore workers across the Gulf Coast, and we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial.
If the company is pressuring you to sign something today, call us first at 832-402-6637. Someone answers 24/7.
Can the company fire me for talking to a lawyer?
Retaliating against a seaman for pursuing a lawful injury claim exposes the company to additional liability. On the call, the attorney will explain your protections before you do anything.
What is maintenance and cure?
Daily living expenses and medical care your employer owes an injured seaman regardless of who caused the injury, until you reach maximum medical improvement. If the company is delaying or denying it, that’s worth a call by itself.
Do I have to use the company doctor?
As an injured seaman you generally have the right to choose your own doctor. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise before you’ve talked to a lawyer.
I’m still offshore — can I book anyway?
Yes. Book any time that works, including when you’re back onshore. If your schedule changes, rescheduling takes one click.
