Toolkit Received August 2011
"I've searched for written law on the Jones Act and Maritime law on the internet. All of my searches result in law offices. Your company has taught me things I didn't know and I recently gave your number and website to a fellow injured worker. He didn't know that he could use his own doctor and that the company would have to pay for it. Something I learned from your videos."

AN ART FORM
"The Young Firm did a great job for me and I would highly recommend them. The office staff was courteous and knowledgeable, (the industry specific professional consultants) are some of the best in their fields, and Tim's courtroom savvy is an art form. The Young Firm allowed me to focus on my recovery by limiting the times I had to travel to New Orleans by bunching depositions, consultant visits, etc. together.
