Federal maritime and admiralty jurisdiction can extend to all navigable waters of the United States and marine navigation. Here in Louisiana, admiralty law is not academic as New Orleans is one of the largest seaports in the world and Louisiana hosts a huge offshore energy industry. Cruise ships, cargo ships and tankers, offshore service vessels, shipyards, marinas and oil and gas rigs can involve property damage and personal injury claims that fall within the maritime law.
