Germer provides comprehensive legal representation to the maritime and energy industries, navigating the distinct legal challenges found in the Gulf of Mexico and along the Texas Coast. We represent a broad range of clients, including petrochemical companies, vessel owners, and general liability insurers. Our attorneys are well-versed in the complexities of admiralty law, providing the steady legal infrastructure necessary to manage high-stakes claims arising from offshore and shoreside operations.
The firm possesses significant experience in the defense of claims brought under the Jones Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act (LHWCA), and the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA). We represent clients in matters involving unseaworthiness, maintenance and cure, and vessel collisions, as well as complex personal injury and wrongful death litigation. As energy exploration and production continue to move further offshore, we provide the technical and procedural depth required to defend employers and operators against the unique risks of the maritime environment.
Beyond individual claim defense, Germer serves as a critical bridge between industry stakeholders and their insurers. We collaborate seamlessly to develop litigation strategies that protect both operational assets and reputations. By combining localized knowledge of Texas ports with a mastery of federal maritime statutes, we deliver a disciplined defense for the entities that power the Gulf Coast’s maritime economy.
