Each year, thousands of people board cruise ships in Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami and Port Canaveral to travel around the world looking for adventure and fun. Unfortunately there are times when a cruise line is negligent and some passengers suffer serious injuries on their cruises or day-time excursions. There have been reports of passengers contracting cruise ship viruses, injuries in slip and fall accidents, fires, collisions, negligent security as well as people who are injured by a failure of the cruise ship crew to provide appropriate medical care when a passenger becomes ill or injured.

Our Florida cruise negligence attorneys are committed to helping victims obtain compensation from the companies who do not provide a safe environment for passengers on cruises. Most lawsuits relating to cruise liners departing from Florida must be filed in Florida. Specific information about where you can file the lawsuit and the statute of limitations that applies can be found on the back of your cruise ship ticket, but the Cruise Ship Attorneys at Law Offices of Jason M. Melton have the ability to handle cases throughout the State of Florida and stand ready to represent clients from Spring Hill, Brooksville, Inverness and New Port Richey who have been injured on cruise ships.

We Will Go to Trial For You

While we seek a fair settlement in every case we handle, we build every case with an eye toward trial so that when cruise lines, and the insurance companies that represent them, do not make a fair settlement offer, we can fight for you in court. In order to press our opponents, we aggressively build our cases from the very beginning.

Our representation does not cost our clients anything until they are first compensated for their injuries. If you have been injured on a cruise ship, please contact us for a consultation.
