Are you in the military, or was this a commercial ship? If it is in the military, I have no idea what to do. If it was a commercial ship, the case is called Jones Act. You need a lawyer that specializes in those cases.

At least six figures, potentially much more depending on the circumstances of your case. It is imperative that you contact an experienced maritime attorney before you reach a settlement with your Jones Act employer or its insurance adjuster.

Find you a lawyer with military background, most lawyers don't deal with military and/or VA issues.
