Why Fantastic Ratings, Great Reviews, Awards, Teaching, and Leadership Are A Benefit To You

We don't mean to suggest the only way someone can be a really good Defense Base Act Lawyer is to have fantastic ratings, get great reviews, win prestigious lawyer awards, be asked to teach other lawyers about the Defense Base Act at lawyer seminars and be elected to lead lawyer organizations. What these things do mean is that people that do know good lawyers from bad lawyers have chosen us for these honors.

How Identified Casuals Fit In

The union is made up of 4 different classes. The top of the ladder is the "A" registered members. These are the full dues paying members who get the first opportunity to work. After all the "A" members get work then what is left over is taken to the "B" class members. "B" members are not members of their perspective Local but are ILWU International members and are considered apprentices and pay lesser dues and can vote only on the coastwise contract. After the "B" members have taken their jobs then what work is left over is taken to the "C" class otherwise known as "Identified Casuals" These are people who are not yet registered ILWU members. After all the "ID's" have taken jobs then any work left over is given to the "unidentified casuals."

Casuals and Longshore Act Injury Claims

Casuals and Identified Casuals have the same right to bring claims under the Longshore Act as regular members of the ILWU. In fact, under the LHWCA - A book holders, B book holders, Identified Casuals and Unidentified Casuals have the same exact rights.

If you are a casual that has been injured on the waterfront, call us - we can help.
