Why Choose Lambert Zainey?

Over 100 Years of Combined Experience

When you’re facing a serious injury, choosing the right law firm can be the most important decision you make. You need a team with the right experience, a history of winning, and a reputation for fighting tirelessly for their clients. At Lambert Zainey, we have spent decades building that reputation, one case at a time.

Here’s why injured workers and their families in New Orleans and across the nation trust us to handle their most complex cases.

Focused Maritime & Injury Experience

Personal injury cases are all different, especially in the unique world of maritime law. An offshore injury is not the same as a car accident. You need lawyers who know the specific laws and industry tactics that will affect your case.

40+ Years of Maritime Law

We have represented injured maritime workers for over four decades. We know the Jones Act, LHWCA, OCSLA, and other maritime laws inside and out, and we know how to find the truth and maximize recovery for you and your family.

A History of Handling Complex Cases

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.

Our Success is in the Numbers

Over the years, our firm has recovered more than $1 billion dollars for clients injured or killed in personal injury accidents. No matter the size of your case, our goal is the same: to get you the maximum compensation possible.

Respected by Our Opponents

Don’t just take our word for it. The lawyers who represent the big maritime and insurance companies know who we are. They know we are fighters who won’t back down and won’t be fooled into taking less than our clients deserve.

Trusted by Our Peers

Backed by a history of significant verdicts, we prepare every case for trial, from the very first day, committing the resources, analysis, and legal firepower needed to fight for the maximum possible recovery.

Our Approach: Direct Communication & Your Best Interests

We believe in a strong, honest relationship with every client. When you work with us, this is our promise to you:

  • You Know Your Lawyer: You will work directly with our experienced attorneys. Your case won’t be passed off to paralegals or junior assistants. From your first call to the end of your case, you’ll have a direct line to your dedicated legal team. Meet Our Attorneys ->
  • No Sugarcoating, Just the Truth: We win with the facts. We will give you an honest assessment of your case, and we won’t overestimate your odds. We believe you deserve the truth so you can make the best decisions for your future.
  • Your Best Interest Comes First: Loyalty to your company is understandable, but after an injury, their main interest is their bottom line. We know how to make companies do the right thing. If we don’t believe filing a lawsuit is in your best interest — for example, if a case is not strong and could risk your job for a small return — we will tell you that. Our advice is always focused on what is best for you.

Our Job is to Get You The Most Money Possible. We’re Not Ashamed of It — and You Shouldn’t Be Either.

You didn’t ask to get hurt. An accident caused by someone else’s carelessness can turn your life upside down, leaving you with medical bills, lost paychecks, and an uncertain future.

We aren’t doctors who can heal your body, but we are lawyers. Our job is to use our skill, experience, and resources to secure the maximum financial recovery available for you under the law. This is the justice we can provide, and we pursue it relentlessly for every client.
