New Orleans Maritime Workers’ Rights Law Firm Introduces New Website

The New Orleans-based law firm of Farrington & Thomas, LLC, protects the rights of longshoremen and other maritime workers in Louisiana, Texas, and California.  In the course of the firm’s 30-year history, the lawyers built a reputation as experts in the field of longshore and workers’ compensation law.  They have procured benefits for more than 3,000 injured workers.

The firm represents longshoremen and other maritime workers (such as ship builders and repairers, harbor and construction workers) in cases involving injury claims arising under the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act.  That law provides compensation and benefits to employees injured on the job, as well as benefits for work-related death.  It covers individuals employed in jobs on navigable waters of the United States or in adjoining areas such as docks. 

In addition, the law firm represents workers covered by the Defense Base Act, which provides the same benefits as the LHWCA for employees of contractors for the United States Military.  Clients include private employees on military bases, employees under service contracts related to national defense, and employees of private employers providing services for the military outside the U.S.

Serving Dockworkers, Shipyard Workers and Offshore Workers

Even though Farrington & Thomas is a well-established law firm whose clients come from the attorneys’ professional relationships and referrals, the lawyers recognized that every firm needs an online presence.  They turned to The Modern Firm to accomplish that goal.  The resulting validation site includes all the elements essential to presenting the firm’s rich history and impressive credentials.

Coincidentally, The Modern Firm recently launched a website for a Norfolk and Newport News, Virginia, attorney whose practice focuses on these same unique areas of law.
