Maritime Injury Lawyer Adam Lotkin: Thought Leader
With over 90% of the world’s economy traveling over the ocean, there are countless accidents on the open seas, but only a handful of lawyers with the skill and expertise required to handle them.
The maritime injury lawyers at Rutter Mills have been setting legal precedents for over 60 years and our attorneys are often recognized as thought leaders by the media, our clients, and their peers. Legal magazine, Lawyers Monthly reached out to one of our firm’s partners, Adam Lotkin, for his perspective on difficulties in maritime cases.
When accidents happen on the water, the laws are different and cases become exponentially more complex. Adam explains the challenges in winning injury claims for accidents occurring at sea, from dealing with foreign companies, time lag in reporting and treatment, to maneuvering in international investigations. Not just any injury lawyer can successfully represent a maritime worker. Only attorneys experienced in the nuances of Admiralty Law and the Jones Act will do.

It takes a special kind of lawyer to handle the work of a maritime case. With accidents that happen thousands of miles from land, and days, weeks, or even months passing before an injured person can disembark and seek legal help, gathering evidence to build an ironclad case is no easy task. Hurdles that are often straightforward on dry land can become exponentially more complex at sea.
