Cruise Ship Passenger Injuries

If you are an injured passenger on a cruise ship, your claim falls into a different system than an injury on land, such as a car accident. Injuries at sea are governed by different laws and require an experienced attorney who understands the ins and outs of maritime law.

Don’t Let Your Trip to Paradise Turn Into a Nightmare

Unlike other types of personal injury cases, in which the victim attempts to get compensation from an insurance company, we will help you make a claim directly to the cruise ship company. Also unlike other cases, such as those involving auto accidents, you only have one year to file your claim in court after a cruise line accident.

You Don’t Have Time to Waste

Cruise ships are very good at covering up evidence. If you have been injured on a cruise ship it is important to take pictures of the scene as soon as possible, fill out an injury report and get the names and addresses of any witnesses.

If that is not possible, you need to contact us as soon as you can. The sooner we get on your case, the sooner we can begin investigating the accident that caused your injuries.

How Were You Injured?

We handle a variety of cruise ship injury cases including slip-and-falls on slippery decks and dangerous or uneven surfaces, injuries during shore excursions, food and environmental illnesses, and many more. You have rights as a cruise ship passenger.

Regardless of how you were injured, you may be able to collect compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
