The attorneys at Lambert Zainey want you to know why we should be your top choice, from our experience to our success record to our reputation as a straightforward firm that fights diligently for our clients.

WE’VE BEEN DOING IT A WHILE

Maritime injuries are unique and challenging cases to handle. They require your lawyer to know which laws to use to maximize your recovery and to know how to discover the facts necessary to show that you were not to blame. Lambert Zainey has represented injured maritime workers for over 40 years and is experienced in how to apply the right laws and how to find the truth of each incident, maximizing the recovery for you and your family.

OUR SUCCESS IS IN THE NUMBERS

Maritime injury claims come in all shapes and sizes, and so do the financial recoveries. Over the years, we’ve recovered more than $1 billion dollars for our clients who have been injured or killed in personal injury accidents. No matter the size of the case, we’ll work to get you the maximum compensation.

OUR REPUTATION

Don’t take our word for it. Ask around. Reputation speaks for itself. The lawyers that represent companies in the maritime world know our firm to be a group of fighters who won’t back down and won’t be fooled into taking less than you deserve. The other firms that you may have considered hiring know us to be experienced, qualified and straight-forward.

KNOW WHO YOUR LAWYER IS

At Lambert Zainey, you will know who represents you and will not get passed off to paralegals, secretaries, junior lawyers and assistants. Hugh “Skip” Lambert or Jacki Smith will be your point of contact from the first time you call to discuss your case until the time your case is over. Want to know more about any one of them? Check out their backgrounds and see where they come from.

OUR STRATEGY

Loyalty to your company is a good thing, but don’t be fooled. The law may treat your employer as a person, but it is anything but that. It doesn’t have a conscience and it doesn’t have a soul. Its heart is in its business and its mind is directed chiefly by profit. Ultimately, your company must do what is in its best interest, not yours. You can’t assume that your company will do the right thing, but at Lambert Zainey, we know how to make them do the right thing. That’s why we say, “If you grab them by their wallets, their hearts and minds will follow.”

We aren’t priests that can heal your soul. We aren’t doctors that can heal your body. We are lawyers and our job is to get you the most money we can. We’re not ashamed of it and you shouldn’t be either.

You didn’t ask to get hurt.

NO SUGAR COATING

We win with the truth. And we don’t contact your employer until you tell us to. So if your case is not strong, we won’t file a lawsuit just to make a quick buck when it will cost you your job. We’ll tell you what we believe to be in YOUR best interest, not ours.
