Applying for Lawsuit Funding for Maritime
Accidents

  • Working at sea is a very difficult job since sea
    or ocean behaviors are erratic and hazardous.
    Seamen, naval engineers, deck officers, engine
    officers, ship captains, ocean rangers and others
    are always risking their lives due to the oceans
    ever-changing conditions.

  • In order to protect the safety of professionals
    who are working in the maritime industry,
    maritime laws are made and implemented. One of
    these laws is the Merchant Marine Act of 1920 or
    the Jones Act. It aims to promote as well as
    maintain all American merchant marines.

Inevitable Accidents
  • Even if several laws are made in order to protect
    the welfare of maritime professionals, accidents
    still happen. Therefore, these professionals
    become victims of various ocean-related
    accidents. They end up losing their main source
    of income as well as their ability to work
    normally.

  • Maritime professionals who experience accidents
    can seek the aid of lawsuit funding in order to
    fund their lawsuit, medical expenses, monthly
    mortgages and physical therapy bills. Otherwise,
    they will succumb to the pressures of the
    defendant.

7
Gather Enough Evidence
  • If you are a victim of maritime accidents, you
    must first gather enough evidence and documents
    in order to prove that the injuries you sustained
    is due to the negligence of your employer. Seek
    medical attention and help from medical
    professionals and doctors in order to obtain a
    certification regarding your physical condition. 

8
  • Consult with a reliable and trustworthy lawyer
    about your case. Your lawyer will help you gather
    the evidence you need in order to win your case.
    He or she will also help defend you in court.

Applying for a Legal Funding
  • Since most victims of maritime misfortunes lose
    their ability to work, they do not have the means
    to fund their lawsuits. Fortunately, there are
    many legal settlement funding companies that
    provide financial assistance for those who cannot
    afford to fight for their rights in court.

11
  • Litigants can simply submit the documents related
    to their case. The lawsuit funding companies will
    determine and decide whether they will grant the
    loan or not. Litigants do not have to worry about
    the application process, as they only have to
    prove that they can win the case.

12
  • Once approved, the company will grant the legal
    funding to the litigant as soon as the processing
    is done. Litigants can use the money in order to
    fund their daily, medical and legal expenses.
    This way, they do not have to settle for a lesser
    and unfair payment.
