We Have A 5-Star Rating On:

Dennis O’Bryan has been Practicing Law since the 80’s. He’s not new to this wicked game and hes a Straight Shooter. Rare find in the Attorney Business. Dennis took my Case and he was the right man for the job. He is a Superior Attorney.

Respectfully,

Clarence Bodenstein

Gary and the firm went out on a limb and took a case that no one else would. They got results. They know their stuff. One wouldn’t hire a young lawyer whom hasn’t been in the trenches per say, you would want to hire the best of the best whom have been thru it all. Hand down Gary and the O’Bryan law firm are the best of the best. They are truly the Mystical Knights of the Sea

Gary,

Thank you. You are awesome.
Vance and I appreciate the huge effort that you put into getting us a settlement.

Sincerely,

Linda

Dear Mr. Karamanian

I just wanted to thank you for the fantastic job you did with my case. I appreciate all the help, support and professionalism you displayed while working to achieve an extremely favorable outcome for me and my family. There were many complex issues involved with my case that you not only handled expertly, but also explained to me in a way that was easy to understand. I always felt confident in your abilities and fortunate to have you representing me. Thank you again.

Mr. Karamanian is an outstanding attorney. He is very thorough, helpful and responsive, and is always available for his clients. I had great trust and confidence in his advice due to his many years of experience. He successfully represented me in my case and I highly recommend him and the team at the O’Bryan, Baun, Karamanian law firm.

I was injured fishing and couldn’t work. I needed help with medical bills and living expenses. Dennis O’Bryan helped me right away. All my medical bills were paid, I was awarded maintenance payments to offset my living expenses until I got back to work, and he recovered all my lost wages.
I highly recommend Dennis O’Bryan at O’Bryan’s Law to anyone injured at work. Let him work for you!

Fred Damer, F/V SEA PRIDE

I suffered what turned out to be a career-ending injury by slipping on an icy deck. This was due to reduced crews and company reluctance to pay the overtime necessary to maintain a safe workplace. I personally knew several other mariners who had been successfully represented by O’Bryan Baun Karamanian so I contacted them. Gary Baun handled my case and it was settled to my satisfaction through mediation without having to endure a trial. He even suggested several financial remedies I could pursue in the meantime and that was a lifesaver.

    transcription of: Our Areas of Practice

    We’re pretty much a multifaceted law firm. We practice a type of law that applies to maritime workers — whether on shore or on a vessel. We practice with regard to railroad workers who are injured on the job and we also do Defense Base Act work, which has to do with civilian translators and such on military bases throughout the world, to which the Longshore Act is applied.

    transcription of: Jones Act Seamen

    Jones Act seamen take in all manner and walks of professional activities on-board a ship. You could be a barber or a singer, or a waiter on a cruise ship. You can be a construction worker involved in a dredging project. You can even be a crew member on a racing yacht. You could be a musician on a cruise ship, you can be a server on a cruise ship, you can be a surgeon on a transport ship. All of these things are taken in under the umbrella of a Jones Act Seaman. The most important thing is a substantial connection to a vessel or a fleet of vessels in duration and in your responsibilities to do the vessel’s work.

    transcription of: Maritime Law

    Admiralty law, or general maritime law, is basically the oldest body of law still in practice in the world today. It’s applied in the United States in many contexts for anything that happens on the water; whether it be the oceans, whether it be a navigable river, such as the Mississippi or Columbia or Ohio River, or a navigable lake like the Great Lakes. Admiralty law is a specialized area of law and we practice it and we know all the rules.
