Common questions
Can I sue a cruise line for an accident?
In most cases, yes - cruise lines can be held liable for negligence like any other business. The catch is procedural, not legal: your ticket contract sets a short filing deadline and names the exact court you’re required to sue in, and missing either one can end your case before it starts.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
No. We work on contingency - our fee comes only from what we recover for you. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing in attorney fees.
Do I have a cruise injury case?
It depends on what happened and who was responsible - a wet deck, a shore excursion gone wrong, an assault, or a missed safety duty can all qualify, but maritime law weighs fault differently than a typical accident on land. The only real way to know is a free case review; most calls take just a few minutes to assess.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Often 1 year to sue, 6 months to give written notice, both far shorter than normal state injury deadlines.
What happens if I get injured on a cruise?
Report it to ship security immediately and get it in writing, go to the ship’s medical center so there’s a record, and preserve what you can - photos of the hazard, witness names, your ticket. Then call a maritime injury attorney before getting into detail with the cruise line’s claims adjusters, since what you tell them early can be used to limit your claim later.
