Injured worker sues CleanBlast, Transocean Offshore, and GlobalSantaFe for injuries sustained offshore
Another injured offshore worker recently hired our firm to represent him in his offshore injury case.
Our client was hurt while working offshore on the Adriatic III, an offshore 350 foot jack-up rig currently the Gulf of Mexico.
He was injured while working for CleanBlast, an offshore services company, while working on the jack-up rig owned and operated by GlobalSantaFe Drilling Company and Transocean Offshore.
We filed our client's lawsuit in Galveston, Texas under the Jones Act and General Maritime law. He seeks damages for loss of income, medical expenses, future loss of income and future medical expenses, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and costs of court, among other things.
Have you been injured on a jack-up rig or while working for GlobalSantaFe, Transocean, or CleanBlast?
If so, we would be interested in hearing your story. In many injury cases that happen on jack-up rigs or offshore, the offshore companies will claim it was a "freak accident" that never happened before or that the accident was all the injured worker's fault.
If you know otherwise, please call our offices toll free at 877.724.7800. Or use the contact form on this website to send us an email.
