Commercial Diving Accidents Lawyers
When many people think of the offshore industry, they picture things like oil rigs and large cargo ships. But one aspect of the maritime industry that they may not think of is commercial diving.
Divers are an integral part of the maritime industry. Many vessels are repaired at dry docks. However, some vessels cannot be easily transported to land for repairs. In these cases, commercial divers are used to completing inspections and working on the vessel while it is still in the water. Divers operate under increasing pressure as they go deeper and deeper under the water. If anything goes wrong in this process, the diver could be at risk for serious injury or death.
If you or a family member has been seriously injured or killed as a result of a commercial diving accident, it is very important that you contact a highly-skilled, commercial diving accidents attorneys immediately.
