Cruise Ship Accident Lawyer

When It Matters Most, We’ll Be There for You

Cruise ship vacations are usually portrayed as paradise on the ocean, with non-stop fun and relaxation. Sadly, however, this is not always the case. When accidents happen, cruise ship vacations can quickly turn into a nightmare, sometimes resulting in death or serious injury.

The wreck of the cruise ship Concordia is a perfect example of such a tragedy. The Concordia ran into a reef off the coast of Italy, resulting in the deaths of at least 25 passengers and dozens of injuries. Many passengers, fearing for their lives, were forced to swim to shore or engage in other harrowing escapes to avoid death. Not only did many of the passengers sustain physical injuries, but it is likely that even more passengers may sustain long-lasting trauma.

About 7 weeks later, the Concordia’s sister ship – the Costa Allegra – suffered an engine room fire which knocked out the ship’s main power supply. For three days passengers were forced to be without lights, power, air conditioning, and running water for showers and toilets until the ship was finally towed into port.

When injuries occur because of negligent actions, our firm seeks to hold those responsible for all of the injuries caused to our clients, including long-term physical and emotional trauma.

Common injuries suffered by passengers on cruise ships include:

In the case of cruise ship injuries, the cruise ship company may seek to minimize their liability by trying to get passengers to agree to small settlements. They sometimes try to make passengers feel like there is no way that they can win more money than what they are offering.
