Intracoastal Waterway – Gulf
Located along the Gulf Coast, the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway extends for approximately 1,050 miles from Florida to Texas. Heavy barge and tug traffic takes place on the waterway 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. With so much commercial activity, barge workers and other maritime employees are at risk for serious accidents and injuries. If you have been injured on the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, our firm will protect your rights and help you get the financial compensation that you are legally entitled to.
Intracoastal Waterway – Atlantic
Stretching across the Eastern Seaboard from Norfolk, Virginia to the Florida Keys, the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (also known as the AIWW or the “ditch”) is a source of tremendous commercial and recreational activity. Unfortunately, with so many maritime activities taking place on a daily basis, the AIWW is also a place where many catastrophic accidents and injuries occur. If you have been injured on a barge, ship or other vessel on the AIWW, the Willis Law Firm will explain your rights and help you seek financial recovery.
