If you are a longshoreman in the Savannah area, you have worked hard to get a great job. A longshoreman job has great pay and benefits, but any type of criminal charge can jeopardize your position. It’s important to work with an aggressive attorney who knows how to help you keep your job.
One of the most important things offered to a longshoreman is TWIC benefits, which can include retirement benefits and pensions. A criminal charge could literally cost you millions, as these benefits could be taken away if you are charged with a crime.
If you are charged with a crime, you will need to file for a waiver and an appeal in order to keep you TWIC benefits. This needs to be done as soon as possible. If it’s not done promptly, your TWIC benefits can be lost permanently.
At The Turner Firm, we represent longshoremen who are charged with crimes every day. We know how the TWIC program works, and we know how to help you keep your career on track. Give us a call today to find out how we can help you.
