It’s a basic question, but one we’re asked quite frequently – “can I sue the cruise line?”
The answer is yes…but it also depends.
Our cruise injury law firm here in Miami fields questions from passengers and crew members who have been injured, hurt or have become sick while traveling or working aboard a cruise ship.
Bringing a claim or lawsuit against a cruise line is possible if it can be proven that the cruise line acted in such a way (or perhaps failed to take action) that their actions led to your injury. *an experienced attorney can help you better understand your ability to sue for compensation.
