Often referred to as admiralty law, maritime law is a body of U.S. laws and regulations that govern offshore activities in navigable waters or in the open sea. Activities that are traditionally governed by maritime law include carriage of goods, marine salvaging, injuries to passengers / workers, and more. Perhaps one of the most important aspects of maritime injury law is the rights that it affords to offshore workers who have suffered injury or illness during the course of their work—including the right to recover just compensation from a seaman’s employer under the Jones Act.
