NORWEGIAN CRUISE INJURY LAWYERS
Injured on a Norwegian cruise?
Norwegian sails large, modern ships from U.S. ports to the Caribbean, Alaska, Europe and Hawaii, and some ships have water slides, go-kart tracks and ropes courses on board. With thousands of guests moving between restaurants, bars and attractions at all hours, injuries can happen almost anywhere. If you were hurt, your Norwegian ticket can decide where and how fast you have to act.

ABOUT NORWEGIAN
Who you would be making a claim against.
Norwegian Cruise Line was founded in 1966 and is owned by Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings, which also owns Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises. The line is based in Miami, Florida. Like any large cruise operator, it has insurers and in-house lawyers, so what you tell them early can affect your claim.
THE FLEET
Twenty ships in six classes, from about 1,900 to about 4,200 guests.
Each class links to its own page with its ships and reported incidents, so passengers searching by ship name land here.
COMMON NORWEGIAN CLAIMS
Where big-ship cruising goes wrong.
Slip and fall

WHAT TO DO AFTER AN INCIDENT
Report it onboard
Ask for a copy of the incident report before you leave the ship.
Document the scene
Photograph the hazard, the location, and any posted signage or lack of it.
Get seen onboard
A visit to the ship’s medical center creates a record with the date and time. Keep every bill and receipt.
Call before you settle anything
What you tell Norwegian or its insurers early can affect your claim later, so do not sign a release or accept a payment before you call.

NORWEGIAN-SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
How long do I have to file a claim against Norwegian?
Norwegian’s ticket contract, like most, can set a short deadline and name the court you must use. Most cruise tickets give you one year to file, and often six months to give written notice. Because the exact terms depend on your ticket, we check the contract that applies to you.
Norwegian is based in Miami but incorporated in the Bahamas. Does that matter?
It can. The company has its offices in Florida, but it is incorporated in the Bahamas, so your ticket may name a court or a country’s law you would not expect. We read the contract before anything is filed, so that your claim goes to the right place.
I was hurt on a go-kart track, ropes course or water slide on board. What should I do?
Get medical care first, then report it and keep your records. The same ticket-contract deadlines apply, and each of these attractions has a page of its own that explains what we look at. In either case, a free case review will tell you where you stand.
What if the excursion was sold through Norwegian?
Excursions sold through the cruise line can carry different responsibility than ones you booked on your own ashore. For that reason, it is a key early question in any shore-excursion claim.
Which company would my claim be against?
Norwegian is owned by a parent company that also owns other cruise brands, but your ticket contract names the company you sailed with. We identify the right one for you before anything is filed, so that nothing goes to the wrong place.
What does it cost to find out if I have a case?
Nothing. The review is free, and if we take your case, we work on contingency, so our fee comes only from what we recover for you.
