In many cases, a passenger's cruise ticket provides for a one-year statute of limitations on personal injury claims against the cruise line. While cruise liner cases typically settle out of court, it is critical to retain an attorney as soon as possible after the accident. Because of the short window, Greenberg & Stone, P.A. must file a lawsuit in Miami-Dade County, either in state or federal court, even if the case is likely to settle. Contacting a lawyer quickly also enables us to document unsafe conditions on the ship and interview witnesses or crew members while they are in port or return to port on subsequent sailings.
