CRUISE SHIP ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS SAN DIEGO, MIAMI, LOS ANGELES…We have convenient office locations and experienced attorneys licensed to practice law in San Diego, Long Beach, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and New York City. Our attorneys who handle Cruise Ship litigation have never lost a Cruise Ship case.
Cruise Lines have been able to avoid liability for accidents by restricting the location and time for your access to court. Cruise line tickets contain language that require you to present your claim to the cruise line (called a presentment requirement), usually within SIX MONTHS. You must bring your claim within a certain amount of time (called a statute of limitations), and bring your case in a certain jurisdiction (called a venue restriction).
The venue restriction on the back of your cruise line ticket will probably require that you bring your case in the Federal Court for the Southern District of Florida or in the State Courts of Southern Florida or in Federal District Court in California. We maintain offices just blocks away form these cruise ship courts, and we have extensive experience in putting your cruise ship accident case in court.
The laws imposed upon operators of cruise ships are unique. Very few lawyers throughout the United States have expertise or experience in handling these types of cases. Further, these cruise ship claims generally do not settle unless a lawsuit is first properly filed in the proper court having jurisdiction over your claim.
williammuhr.com has cruise ship accident attorneys who do have extensive experience with these unique types of maritime claims and with the filing of civil actions against major cruise ships. We have handled a variety of cruise line cases from slip and falls aboard a cruise ship on a slippery deck to exceedingly complicated matters involving product defects, other serious accidents on-board cruise ships out at sea, and alleged medical malpractice that occurred in the ship’s infirmary. We also represent people who have suffered non-economic and economic injuries arising out of fires on board the cruise ships and collisions with objects, vessels, or other ships in the deep seas.
Please call us at 1800-934-4LAW(4529) to discuss your cruise ship accident case. Our initial consultation with an experience lawyer is always free.
