Commercial Diving Attorney
A
commercial diving attorney is charged with the
responsibility of assisting an injured diver and his or her
family, typically at a very precarious time in their lives. An
injured diver may be facing significant economic issues while
simultaneously dealing with potentially devastating injuries.
A commercial diving attorney understands that
the injured diver has his or her livelihood impacted by their
injury and that it is important that their legal rights are
being protected while they are also receiving sound legal and
practical advice from their commercial diving attorney.
Though it is true that every diver assumes a risk of injury by
diving commercially or recreationally, that does not mean that
there are no legal protections for commercial divers. Divers
have legal rights
under the law which may entitle them to file a claim against one
of a number of different parties. Only an experienced commercial
diving attorney will have both the knowledge of the admiralty
law as well as the oftentimes complex commercial diving
operations which take place on surface and working depth.
Understanding the appropriate application of decompression
tables, proper use of diving equipment and adherence to the
standards and regulations at the industry and governmental
levels set apart the truly qualified commercial diving attorney
from those who aspire to be.
Every commercial diving attorney at Delise & Hall

often emotional counseling for them and their family. By viewing
each client as a person in need of assistance rather than just

attorneys who lack the experienced of a commercial diving
attorney can often lead the injured party to lose any legal
protections or right to sue. By consulting with a commercial

family can find out what legal protections there are and what
potential claims they have.
