For Admiralty Law and Offshore Accidents the highest level of training that an attorney can obtain is the Master of Laws in Admiralty (LLM degree).  David Hesser has this level of training and experience.

Admiralty and maritime law governs accidents that occur on the water or are connected with the water. This area of the law requires specialized knowledge and skill to successfully represent those people (including Jones Act seamen, unseaworthiness claims, maintenance and cure and general maritime law) who have maritime accidents. For the residents of the gulf coast (Louisiana Mississippi and Texas), this knowledge is extremely important because of the amount of people that work in the offshore oil business in these states. If you were injured in an offshore accident or an accident in and around rivers and lakes you will need an attorney who is experienced and knowledgeable in admiralty law.
