Maritime Injury Representation for Providence, Rhode Island
Providence has always been a working port, and the waterfront remains busy year-round. Ships move in and out of the Providence River and Narragansett Bay every day—everything from commercial cargo ships and container ships to hardworking tug boats and barges supporting the region’s marine industry. Local crews also rely on commercial fishing, seasonal ferry services, and heavy recreation boating traffic, while ongoing dredging work keeps the channels navigable. These jobs keep the port running, but they also put workers in situations where injuries can happen in an instant.
At Latti Associates LLC, we’ve spent more than 60 years helping maritime workers and families throughout New England, and we understand how overwhelming life becomes after a serious accident. We regularly represent people dealing with amputation, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury, and even maritime deaths. These cases fall under specific federal laws—often the Jones Act—which give injured maritime workers rights that many don’t realize they have. The details matter, and the outcome of a case can shift quickly if the right steps aren’t taken early on.
In the Providence area, we often help clients who were injured in incidents such as:
-
Gear failures, falls, or crush injuries onboard commercial fishing vessels
-
Mechanical breakdowns, unsafe conditions, or collisions involving tug boats, barges, cargo ships, and container ships
-
Passenger or crew injuries on ferry routes or during busy recreation boating activity on the bay
-
On-the-job harm linked to harbor and river dredging projects
Many people reach out to us after realizing that their employer or the insurance company is already trying to control the narrative of what happened. That pressure alone can make recovery even harder. Our team steps in to protect your rights, investigate the incident, gather evidence, and guide you through everything the Jones Act and general maritime law allow you to claim. We take the time to understand how the injury has affected your health, your work, and your family—not just in the moment, but long-term.
Providence workers keep the port moving, and when something goes wrong, you deserve a law firm that understands the industry and knows how to fight back. At Latti Associates LLC, we’re here to help you move toward a more stable future and get the compensation you need to rebuild your life.
