Houston Dredge Accident Lawyer

We know how to fight back for you.

Houston-Based Attorneys Specializing in Dredge Accident Cases

When waterways and shipping channels in the Gulf region need to be deepened or widened, dredge crews answer the call. Dredging makes coastal and inland navigation possible for container ships and other large commercial vessels that carry cargo to and from ports around the world. Dredging is also an important aspect of the Gulf fishing economy, with dredges being used to catch and harvest oysters, clams and other shellfish throughout the region.

Unfortunately, this important work often puts deckhands and other dredge workers at risk for serious job-related injuries. At Morrow & Sheppard LLP, we help injured dredge workers claim just compensation for their losses. If you were injured while working on a dredge, we can help you enforce your rights under the Jones Act and win the compensation you deserve.

    Common Injuries in Dredging Accidents

    Dredging is dangerous work that can lead to a number of different types of injuries. From slippery decks to poor vessel maintenance and inadequate safety precautions, all types of issues can put dredge workers in the hospital and leave them unable to provide for their families. Dredge workers in the Gulf region often incur substantial medical bills and miss significant time from work due to injuries such as:

    • Brain injuries
    • Broken bones
    • Burns from fires and explosions
    • Chemical burns and exposure injuries
    • Equipment pinches and severed limbs
    • Injuries from slips and falls
    • Injuries from impacts with machinery and falling objects
    • Joint injuries (including knee, elbow, hip and shoulder injuries)
    • Near-drowning injuries
    • Neck and spinal cord injuries

    If you have been injured in a dredging accident, it is important that you seek medical attention as soon as possible. If you need help finding a doctor, we can refer you to a specialist who can treat your injuries.

    No Fee Unless We Win

    At Morrow & Sheppard LLP, we understand the hardships of trying to heal and make sense of an accident. That is why we work on a contingency fee basis, which means no fee unless we win the case. Our fee is a percentage of the verdict or settlement we obtain for you.

    We Can Help You Recover Just Compensation for Your Dredge Accident Injuries

    If you have been injured at work, it is important to stand up for your legal rights. You could be entitled to significant financial compensation, and your employer is prohibited from retaliating against you for exercising your right to collect the money you need to recover from your injuries. At Morrow & Sheppard LLP, a Houston dredge accident lawyer will fight aggressively to make sure you win maximum compensation for your losses. To learn more, request a free consultation today.

      I've been in the legal field for a while now and not only do I know John Sheppard & Nick Morrow, I have attorney friends that have worked with them throughout the years. This is a great firm and great people that work at Morrow & Sheppard. I have been reading the reviews on here and it makes me happy to see that their clients think as highly of them as I do.

      I was injured and my business closed down due to an accident in 2016. Daniel Sheppard became my greatest asset. He hired professional experts for their views and opinions as well as conducting numerous depositions. Daniel is hard working and no nonsense when handling your case. Daniel keeps you informed on what's going on and what to expect. I'm from Louisiana and my case was in Texas. Daniel Sheppard worked alone side my other attorney Yuri Beck, and the both of them did a fantastic job representing me and settling my case. Daniel Sheppard of Morrow & Sheppard in Texas and Yuri Beck of Hunter & Beck in Louisiana are my lawyers for LIFE.

      Nick Morrow and John Sheppard were the lead attorneys on my case to hold an apartment complex with inadequate security responsible for the death of my son. The two of them were focused and determined to represent me and my son's children with tenacity. As the case continued over time, it became apparent that we were not merely clients that were a means to a financial end to them but people who had experienced a life changing and devastating loss. They realized that as a result of our loss, there needed to be accountability that could only be obtained through legal actions. Throughout the legal process, Nick Morrow and John Sheppard were not only professional and transparent but also compassionate and empathetic as they lead us through the difficult and sometimes confusing legal maze. Every person in their office that was involved with our case exemplified an extension of the genuine concern that began with attorneys Morrow and Sheppard. I have and will continue to recommend this firm to individuals who find themselves in need of legal representation.

      The legal team at Morrow and Shepherd worked hard to help me win my case where a motorist who caused the accident changed her story and lied about the accident. A previous attorney kept telling me that I would probably have to pay some of the medical costs out of my own pocket.Daniel, my attorney, assured me that he would it is best to make sure this did not happen and that he would fight to get me the best compensation possible. He was true to his word.I'm happy with their work, happy with the compensation and would definitely use them again.The Legal Assistant, Chris, was always professional, friendly and polite and a pleasure to work with.A big thanks to the team!Don

      Before I engaged John Sheppard, I was concerned that I might lose my case. However, John came onboard, turned things around, and set me on a good course to win. He got up to speed quickly on the facts and determined exactly what we needed to do. He is great at strategy, filing discovery and other motions, and arguing before the court. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of my case. If you need legal help in a personal injury action, commercial law or whatever, hire him immediately! He is a pleasure to work with, will thoroughly explain all to you in a manner you can understand, and will get you the best possible outcome. A+++
