Back & Neck Injuries

Neck Injury - Herniated Disc - Chronic Back Pain

Working on a ship or any type of seagoing vessel is hazardous. Seamen and sailors are vulnerable to many types of injuries, including those to the back and neck. At the law firm of Latti & Anderson, our lawyers help injured maritime workers obtain the compensation they need to recover from these often-severe and life-changing injuries. We help injured seamen throughout New England, the Eastern Seaboard, and in the Pacific and Alaska fisheries. Contact us today if you have suffered a neck or back injury. Call 1-800-392-6072 for a free initial consultation.

Working to help injured seamen suffering from back and neck injuries

A back injury can leave a person with chronic back pain and limited mobility. The injured person may become permanently disabled and unable to work at all or work in the same trade as before. In addition to their expensive medical bills, a person suffering a back or neck injury may require extensive vocational and physical rehabilitation. Our law firm is dedicated to getting injured sailors and seamen the resources to pay for the medical treatment and therapy they need.

Examples of injuries

Injured clients come to us after suffering a neck or back injury that leaves them with:

  • Sciatica
  • Bulging or herniated disc
  • Slipped disc
  • Fractured vertebrae

We also help clients who have experienced a life-altering spinal cord injury. Whatever type of neck or back injury you have suffered, our lawyers can determine the best way for you to pursue the compensation that you need.

Sailors and seamen are vulnerable to neck and back injuries

Working on board a vessel requires many hours of standing, lifting, pulling, and twisting. Add to that the hazards inherent in marine activities—the winches, the ropes, the pulleys, the forklifts, the heavy equipment—and it is remarkable that there are not more back and neck injuries. Contact our lawyers at Latti & Anderson to learn how we can help you, whatever the cause of your injury. We serve clients throughout New England and across the country.
