Lawyers Lie to Judges, Juries and Clients. You need to know - some California Maritime Lawyers are different. There are lawyers that will be straight forward with you.

We are California Maritime Attorneys that are different. We don't lie to Judges, Juries or Clients. We are going to give it to you straight.

California Jones Act Attorneys that are different

We are going to give it to you straight

Most attorney web sites give you bubbly language about all the things that they are going to do for you. We're different. We are going to be honest with you from the start. We are going to tell you about, not only the good parts of your case, but the potential problem areas also. Right from the start.

We never try to fool the Judge or the Jury

Many jurors assume that when you walk into court and ask for money, you are lying. And they assume your lawyer is lying. Thing is, juries can almost always spot deception. In this environment, your only chance to prevail is to be completely candid with the jury. That means, if there is a difficult fact or evidence (and even the "best" cases have them); the jury had better hear it from your attorney first. People walking into court asking for money - - must never, ever, try to fool the jury. If you take anything away from this website, it should be this - - never try and fool the jury.


We are extremely selective in what cases we accept

This means that we get deeply involved in the cases we do accept. This allows the time required to practice law at the highest level. Attorneys should do attorney work. Not paralegals and secretaries. Folks, it isn't that way at most firms you are going to find on the first page of Google. If you hire most of these firms, you are going to be just another client among hundreds of other clients.
We do not claim to be "specialists" in a dozen different practice areas

We only claim to specialize in a few practice areas: boat, ship and maritime injuries; unsafe products; work injuries; and wage and hour class actions. And that's it. We have an in depth knowledge and expertise in these limited practice areas. This is a huge advantage for our clients.

We are "Proctors in Admiralty." Meaning we specialize in Maritime law. You need a San Diego Maritime lawyer or San Diego Maritime attorney. Make no mistake about it.
