Cruise Ship Injuries
For many people, taking a cruise vacation on the open sea is a dream come true. Having the opportunity to spend several days or weeks of leisure on a cruise ship can be enormously enjoyable, but for some, it can turn into a tragedy. If you or a loved one has been injured during a cruise, our Florida cruise ship injury lawyers can help you pursue justice.
The moment you step aboard a cruise ship, you place your life in the hands of the crew, and they and the company that operates the ship assume a responsibility to protect your safety. In cases where this duty of care has been neglected, you may be eligible for financial compensation. Our Florida personal injury attorneys at Rosenberg & Rosenberg can fight for you to receive a fair settlement for what you’ve endured.

If you’ve been injured on a cruise ship or lost a loved one to a cruise ship accident, you are likely dealing with immense stress. Recovering financial compensation can help you regain control over your finances, seek the care you need, and help you plan for a future that no longer looks like you expected it to.
Rosenberg & Rosenberg can seek damages for the following:
Injuries can have a far-reaching impact on your finances, such as lost income while recovering or costly medical bills for your treatment. Recoverable economic losses include medical expenses, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, and more.
The impact of an injury extends beyond just financial consequences, affecting both physical and emotional well-being. Recoverable non-economic losses include physical pain, emotional distress, lowered quality of life, loss of consortium, and more.

In most cases, you have a six-month time limit to give notice or file a claim for an injury or death on a cruise ship.
To pursue a personal injury claim, you need to prove that the cruise ship company (or a related entity, such as an employee of the company) disregarded their duty of care. Doing so can be complicated, but our legal team can thoroughly investigate and gather evidence to support your claim.

If you’ve been injured on a cruise ship, it can be helpful to your claim to document your injuries by taking photos of them. You should also report the incident to staff immediately. These forms of documentation can help establish both the timeline and the severity of your injury.
However, your priority should always be focusing on your medical needs and recovery. If you are too busy receiving treatment to take any of the steps mentioned above, you can still take legal action. Rosenberg & Rosenberg can report the accident, communicate with authorities, gather evidence, talk to witnesses, and file a claim for you.
Your injuries may be preventing you from living life the way you want to. The physical pain and emotional trauma are overwhelming enough, but when the financial stress of medical bills is added on, it can quickly seem insurmountable. You may want to pursue a personal injury case but are worried about affording a lawyer. You deserve to have legal representation that cares about you.
At Rosenberg & Rosenberg, our legal team operates on a contingency-fee basis. There are no upfront costs for you, starting with your initial free consultation. In fact, you won’t owe us anything unless we recover compensation for your case. Contact our Florida cruise ship injury lawyers to get started. We will treat your case with the empathy and dedication that you deserve.
