Jones Act Lawyer

David Dinnes is the former employee of many vessels during his 20 year career as a seaman. During those years, Dinnes says that he was exposed to benezene and many products that contained benezene, which he now claims is the cause of his development of non-Hodgkins lymphoma.

Dinnes has filed a Jones Act Lawsuit against 18 of his former employers including Kirby Marine Transportation Company. He has also included the names of 13 producer companies as defendants in his case.

The suit states that Dinnes was exposed to benzene when loading and unloading products on and off of the defendants’ ships. Under the Jones Act, Dinnes claims that his former employers were negligent, failed to provide him a safe place to work, and failed to warn him of the dangers of the benzene substances that he came in contact with over his many years as a seaman.
