Jones Act
The Jones Act permits injured seamen to seek compensation for injuries resulting from the negligence of their employers or co-workers during the course of their employment on a vessel. As any seaman knows, a ship can be a very dangerous place to work. The Jones Act reflects that reality of maritime work, and a seaman's employer may be liable for even a small breach of duty which contributes to a seaman's injury. This is true, even where a seaman performs dangerous work while aware of the high risks involved in the work.
In addition to compensation for injuries cause by negligence, an injured seaman may also make a claim against the vessel's owner on the basis that the vessel was not seaworthy. An employer may also be liable for failing to provide a seaman with adequate medical care.
Jones Act litigation seeks to recover damages for both past and future economic and non-economic losses.

Personal Injury
Accidents can happen anywhere – and for many reasons.  For example, not having a lifeguard on duty at a swimming pool; an unsanded, icy sidewalk in front of a restaurant; an elevator that hasn't been maintained properly; a wet floor in a grocery store; failure to provide adequate security; unprovoked dog bites and attacks; exposure to hazardous chemicals; and other hazards.  Potentially dangerous conditions like these can result in lasting injuries, life-long pain, and even death.
Residential and business property owners have a legal obligation to make sure their property is safe and properly maintained. Additionally, liability law dictates that they must warn people who enter the premises of any unsafe conditions. Property owners who do otherwise endanger their visitors.
