You have a lot of important decisions to make if you've lost a loved one at sea. As you grieve, you must attend to other matters such as how your family will make up the lost income of your loved one who died. Will you be made to suffer the financial loss in addition to the emotional loss, or can a New York maritime attorney help you?
