With over 5 million cruise passengers traveling through PortMiami in 2017 alone, it is not surprising that the port is well recognized as the “cruise capital of the world.” While the heavy volume of ships and passengers is a critical component of the region’s economy, a wide range of accidents and injuries can occur on these vessels. From slip and falls and swimming pool accidents to sexual assaults and injuries caused by crew negligence, the experience on a cruise ship is not always a positive one for passengers. In addition, members of the crew are at high risk of injury while working aboard a cruising vessel.
The laws governing cruise ship injuries and accidents are extraordinarily complicated and are best handled by attorneys with specific expertise in cruise ship and other maritime claims. The legal team at our firm includes Florida Bar board certified maritime law attorney Keith Brais who has vast experience helping people who have been injured on cruises, including cruises leaving from the Miami area. Our lawyers also represent crew members and other cruise ship industry workers who have been injured on the job. We are dedicated and compassionate maritime law professionals who will do everything we can to help our clients recover fair and full compensation for their injuries.
