Maritime Law

Commercial Fishing | Recreational Boating | Jones Act Claims | Death on the High Seas

Maritime law has been a cornerstone of English common law since the 17th century. In the United States, the importance of maritime law dates back to the original Constitution. In fact, several of the founding fathers specialized in maritime law, including Alexander Hamilton and John Adams.
