Arnold & Itkin LLP Maritime Lawyers Settle Jones Act Case with Calf Injury for $925,000

Posted on August 16, 2009 by Maritime Lawyer

Houston maritime lawyers Kurt Arnold and Gabe Vick secured a $925,000 settlement for a maritime worker injured while working on a vessel.

While handling lines on the vessel, the seaman's calf was crushed when the boat began to move, putting tension on one of the lines. The resulting injury required reconstructive surgery. The Jones Act case was pending in Galveston County, Texas and settled a few days before trial.
