Mexico / Latin America Maritime Lawyers

Banning Micklow & Bull LLP - Mexico / Latin America Commercial Fishing Attorneys

Many of the crew on United States (US) and American fishing boats are from Mexico and Latin America. Foreign crewmembers often do not know their rights regarding maritime accidents that happen in the U.S. or when working for a U.S. company. At Banning Micklow & Bull LLP, our experienced lawyers have handled numerous maritime law cases for Mexican and Latin American citizens. Contact our firm today to learn more about your specific case and how we may be able to help you.

Our firm handles many different types of maritime cases representing clients from Mexico and Latin America, including the areas of Ensenada, Tijuana, Baja California, and throughout northwestern Mexico and Latin America. Some of the types of cases we handle are listed below:

Mexicans Injured in Recreational Boating Accidents

Many residents of Northern Mexico travel to the United States (US) to use jet skis, boats, and other recreational watercraft. Unfortunately, recreational boating accidents do happen and can cause severe injuries. Our firm handles boating accident personal injury cases for Mexican and Latin American citizens who have been injured on a boat in the Pacific Ocean or other waterway.

Mexicans and Latin Americans Injured in Commercial Fishing Accidents

The density of commercial fishing boats off the coast of California and Mexico is large. Though the technology on these vessels is frequently state-of-the-art, accidents and incidents do happen, leaving workers seriously injured. Our firm strives to help Mexican and Latin American deckhands and commercial fishermen understand their rights if they have been injured in the United States or while working for a US boat owner.

Also for clients from the Ensenada, Tijuana, Baja California, northwestern Mexico and Latin America, we handle maritime cases involving:

• Accidental death
• Sexual assault
• Cruise ship injury

In addition to handling maritime matters that are experienced by Mexican citizens, our firm is able to handle a broad range of issues that are not maritime-related but experienced by the same group of individuals (motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice claims and insurance disputes). Contact us today to discuss your specific case and discover how our aggressive attorneys can help you.
