We are pleased to announce that one of our clients, a commercial diver who works offshore, has obtained a settlement against his employer and a lift boat company following serious injuries he sustained while diving offshore.
Our client was employed by Seamar Divers and worked on a Montco Offshore lift boat. According to their websites, Seamar Divers provides offshore commercial divers, subsea construction, and subsea fabrication services to the oil and gas industry. Montco Offshore provides lift boats to the offshore industry.
Our client was hurt when the Seamar supervisor failed to monitor the dive properly, resulting in our client getting "the bends." The Montco crane operator brought him up too quickly and dropped him too hard on the deck of the lift boat, resulting in severe orthopedic injuries.
After working on the case for less than a year, we were able to negotiate a settlement that takes care of all medical bills, expenses, attorney fees, and still leaves a substantial monetary recovery for our client to invest or spend how he wants.
