MIAMI, FL – Brais Law Firm (“Brais Law”) is proud to announce that, over a period of less than nine months between 2023 and mid-2024, the firm’s recoveries for clients exceeded $100 million, including structured benefits.

These results reflect far more than a headline number. They represent Brais Law’s success in holding powerful marine operators and employers financially responsible when their negligence or the intentional acts of their employees cause catastrophic personal injury or death — and in helping seriously injured people secure the resources they need so that catastrophic injuries do not define the rest of their lives. The firm views its greatest accomplishment as helping clients regain the freedom to rebuild and enjoy the remainder of their lives.

With these recent recoveries, the firm’s collective verdicts and settlements now exceed Hundreds of Millions of Dollars since dedicating itself exclusively to representing victims of negligence and crimes on board cruise ships, commercial vessels, tugs and barges, yachts, and in recreational watersports (including boating, diving, snorkeling, jet skiing, and parasailing injuries).

Real-World Maritime Experience and Expertise in the Courtroom

Brais Law’s results are grounded in uncommon maritime knowledge and trial experience. The firm’s founding partner Keith S. Brais earned a B.S. in Marine Engineering from Massachusetts Maritime Academy, acquired three U.S. Coast Guard marine engineering licenses (inactive), and worked for more than seven years on offshore oil drilling platforms and drill ships. He has been Board Certified in Admiralty & Maritime Law by The Florida Bar since 1996 — a credential held by only a select group of lawyers statewide.

“Protecting Rights and Restoring Lives”

Brais Law’s mission, “Protecting Rights and Restoring Lives,” is reflected in every aspect of the firm’s work. Brais Law most often represents cruise passengers and crewmembers, yacht crew and guests, divers and snorkelers — including those struck by boat propellers due to inattentive operators — and watersports riders such as jet ski and wave runner users, in cases involving negligence, unseaworthiness and sexual assaults/ rapes.
