Bridgeview Legal Funding today announced Pre-Settlement Lawsuit Loans for Maritime Accident Lawsuits. New Jones Act Lawsuit Loans are available for sailors and harbor workers who have been injured on the job and are engaged in maritime accident lawsuits.
Maritime lawsuits fall primarily into two different categories: the Jones Act and the Longshoreman and Harbor Workers Compensation Act. Both of these acts are dedicated to assisting both workers and sailors at sea. Maritime law helps regulate and administrate water transportation, employment at sea and off shore trading. When and individual is injured in a maritime accident do to the negligence of another person or company, they have the right to seek financial compensation for their injuries.
Maritime law, also referred as admiralty law, is primarily directed towards ensuring good working conditions at sea and in port. The Jones Act was enacted to protect employees at sea and ensure that companies provide good working conditions for their employees. Although each case is different, when an individual is injured at sea, they will often contact a maritime lawyer that handles injuries at sea rather than a traditional workers compensation lawyer. Maritime law is very specific and requires an experienced attorney that handles maritime accident claims.
"We're pleased to be able to offer Pre-Settlement Lawsuit Loans for Jones Act Lawsuits. Complex maritime injury lawsuits sometimes take years to settle and may have considerable discovery and preparation costs. Our Maritime Accident Lawsuit Funding enables workers and sailors to cover costs in advance of their settlement," stated Chuck Cocuzza of Bridgeview Legal Funding.

When the Jones Act was passed in 1920, injured seamen were able to rely on a statute to better ensure compensation if getting injured while at sea. Now, in order to successfully win a Jones Act lawsuit, the injured seamen must just be able to prove negligence on the part of the employer.
Regardless of corporate negligence, the sailor or sea worker on a vessel is entitled to "maintenance and cure" for injuries incurred while at sea. Maintenance entitles the victim to a small daily allowance similar to that he would have been entitled to on the ship. Cure refers to the providing of medical care, surgical procedures, rehabilitation and/or hospitalization.
Should harbor workers or sailors sustain an on-the-job injury, maritime companies will likely owe them a Jones Act lawsuit settlement for their injuries and losses.
Bridgeview Legal Funding provides Jones Act Accident Settlement Funding based on the strength and merits of your case, regardless of your personal or business credit. You may use the cash advance as you please without restrictions. Once you receive your Jones Act lawsuit funds you may use the money to sustain or advance the growth of your business, pay your personal or business debt, the purchase of a new home, or for litigation purposes.
Bridgeview Legal Funding offers those pursuing Jones Act lawsuits access to future lawsuit settlements via settlement cash advances to assist plaintiffs with loss of employment, legal bills and any other use of funds they might require.
