Fuquay Law Firm - Mobile, AL

Over 30 Years of Maritime and Admiralty Law Excellence

When you suffer an injury on the water, navigating the complexities of maritime law requires an advocate with deep, industry-specific knowledge. Fuquay Law Firm, established in Mobile, Alabama, is led by Richard W. Fuquay, a trial-tested attorney with over three decades of legal experience. Since receiving his Juris Doctor from the University of Alabama in 1991, Richard has committed his practice to fighting for the rights of merchant seamen, offshore oil rig workers, fishermen, and shipyard employees. If you find yourself in a situation where you urgently need a lawyer who understands the unique protections of the Jones Act, maintenance and cure, and general maritime law, this firm delivers unparalleled representation.

Protecting Injured Workers and Maritime Personnel

Working on navigable waters or in busy ports like the Port of Mobile comes with high physical risk. Under the Jones Act, maritime workers are entitled to safe working conditions, and when employers fail to provide them, injured seamen can pursue significant damages. Richard Fuquay represents dock workers, longshoremen, and offshore wind workers who have suffered traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, or lost limbs in heavy equipment accidents. To find a lawyer who is regularly sought after as co-counsel by other law firms due to his mastery of admiralty and maritime injury law is a massive advantage in maximizing the compensation you receive.

Proven Representation in Personal Injury and Vehicle Accidents

Beyond maritime matters, the firm provides aggressive advocacy for victims of highway collisions and land-based industrial accidents. If you or a loved one has been injured on Alabama roads, the firm's personal injury division is prepared to stand up to multi-billion-dollar insurance carriers. They handle catastrophic car accident claims, semi-truck collisions, and motorcycle accidents, focusing on reconstructing crash scenes and proving liability. You can hire an attorney who works methodically with accident reconstruction analysts, forensic engineers, and medical experts to demonstrate how negligent drivers are liable for your medical bills, lost wages, and suffering.

Dedicated Support for Wrongful Death and Catastrophic Loss

The sudden loss of a family member is a devastating experience, particularly when it is caused by another's reckless or negligent behavior. Under Alabama law, a wrongful death claim must be filed within two years of the date of death and can secure vital punitive damages to deter future negligence. Fuquay Law Firm guides grieving families through these difficult times with utmost compassion and legal precision. By managing all complex court filings, handling estate details, and preparing a compelling case for trial, they allow you to focus on healing while they pursue the structural justice your family deserves.
