Cruise Ship Injuries

Our firm has handled all types of injuries occurring on a vacation cruise:

• Slip and fall accidents on wet or uneven surfaces, or due to cruise ship maneuvering
• Water slide, wave pool and swimming pool accidents
• Accidents on cruise line-approved excursions at ports of call
• Cruise ship sexual assault or physical assault by crew members or other passengers
• Contaminated food resulting in severe illness (i.e. norwalk virus infections, gastrointestinal infections, salmonella, etc.)
• Medical negligence — People who are treated aboard a cruise liner may be put off at ports in other countries without adequate arrangements made for their care. The treating doctors may not be qualified or have proper medical equipment, leading to wrong diagnosis and/or improper treatment.

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.
