Montana Jones Act Claims

Though a lot of recreational fly fishing is done in the state of Montana, there are many residents that are employed as commercial fishermen in the state as well. With rivers channeling through every corner of the state, it is no wonder that Montana is home to barge workers, tugboat operators, and professional fishermen. However, these men and women that work day in and day out on the rivers of Montana are not always protected by the average worker's compensation laws. However, the Jones Act has been created to provide a comprehensive resource that clarifies the rights of maritime workers in the state. This Act explains how waterway workers have the right to pursue compensation if they are injured due to the fault of their employer, whether it be because of negligence or otherwise. However, there are specifics in the Jones Act that require an experienced Jones Act attorney to explain. Many law firms are more than willing to take on a Montana Jones Act claim, but they are not well-versed in all of the ins and outs of maritime workers' rights.
