K-SEA Transportation's Pacific Division is located in Seattle, Washington. K-SEA's Pacific Division is mainly involved in transporting petroleum products up and down the West Coast and throughout Alaska. K-SEA has a large fleet of tugs and tank barges. Unfortunately, crewmen working for even the best tug and barge companies sometimes suffer serious injuries. When those accidents happen because of negligence or unseaworthiness, injured crewmen are entitled to full and complete compensation under Federal Maritime Law.

Injured crewmen, in almost all cases, are entitled to maintenance and cure. They have the right to choose their own medical care providers, and to receive medical treatment until they have reached maximum medical improvement. If you were injured through negligence, you have claims for compensation under the Jones Act. Damages under the Jones Act may include compensation for past and future lost wages, pain and suffering, medical and nursing expenses, retraining costs, and loss of enjoyment of life. The maritime lawyers at Beard Stacey Jacobsen employ some of the leading experts in the country to prove their clients claims for damages.

They are available to provide free initial consultations on maritime injury claims. They do not represent K-SEA or their insurance carriers.
