Alaska - California - Hawaii - Marine Insurance Lawyers for Plaintiffs
Brodsky Micklow Bull & Weiss LLP - San Francisco - San Diego

To get an idea of the impact that years of dedicated maritime law experience can mean to your marine injury, death, or insurance claim, call the skilled San Francisco-San Diego maritime trial attorneys at Brodsky Micklow Bull & Weiss LLP.

Our Jones Act lawyers and our marine insurance lawyers learned a lot while they represented marine insurers. First, we saw for ourselves the importance of preparing every case for trial. Too many plaintiffs' attorneys failed to put in the work necessary to make the threat of a trial credible to a good marine insurance defense lawyer.

Unless counsel for the plaintiff make an emphatic demonstration of their willingness and ability to try the claim, the insurance lawyers will have no incentive to make settlement offers that reflect their full exposure on the claim. That's why we prepare every client file for trial, whether you're a luxury cruise passenger or a Jones Act working seaman, no matter how sure we may be that the case will likely settle beforehand.

Our Opponents Never Outwork Us

Next, we learned the importance of hustle and hard work. We saw many attorneys who never left town. To us, that's unthinkable. The key witnesses in a shipboard personal injury or maritime wrongful death case could be anywhere in the world. We use experienced international investigators to find them. Then we go wherever we need to go, and use international process to compel and preserve their testimony - practically anywhere on earth. The San Diego-San Francisco maritime law attorneys of Brodsky Micklow Bull & Weiss LLP will never tell you that the testimony you need to prove your case is unavailable because the witness is out of the country without making our best efforts to obtain the testimony.

Many of our cases have international aspects with respect to the law as well as to the facts. We know how to use international treaties and conventions to develop your claim and enforce your personal injury judgment. We know how to unravel the tangled threads of ownership, registration, and nationality of foreign flag vessels so that your judgment will be worth its full value to you.
