Admiralty, Cruise Ship, & Maritime Law
Florida Cruise Ship Lawyers
If you are a seaman covered by the Jones Act or a cruise ship passenger you need experienced legal help if you have been injured. Special laws -- state, national and international -- govern injury and death claims for seamen and passengers. Statutes of Limitation are shorter--sometimes just 6 months from incident date.
Many cruise ship tickets contain fine print which forces injured people to pursue their claims in Miami Florida even though they live far away. Substantive rules for what is dangerous or safe differ on the high seas from territorial U.S.A. Even court procedures vary from what many people expect. We have sued all the major cruise carriers for our clients. We know what to do.
