Holland America Cruise Ship Accident Lawyer
Many passengers don’t even realize that the cruise line might be liable for injuries sustained while on the cruise
You may also not know that by filing a claim (assuming it can be proven the cruise line or its employees were negligent in their actions or policies) you may be able to get a settlement or verdict against Holland America Line that will help pay for medical bills, missed time at work and other compensatory and punitive damages.
Recently, Holland America has been in the news as the MS Zaandam made international headlines when hundreds were infected with Coronavirus (COVID-19) and at least 4 passengers and crew died of the virus.
If you believe you have a claim against Holland America Cruise Lines – or even if you’re unsure about your options – you should speak with an attorney.
Quite frankly, most people don’t know what to do if they’ve been involved in an accident. At first, most people focus their attention on getting proper medical treatment and going through rehab and recovery for their injuries. And you should.
It’s generally only when the medical bills start to pile up that passengers think about filing an injury claim or begin to seek the help of an attorney. This is when it’s time to contact a lawyer. We can help you file a claim (or take over if you’ve been frustrated with the process of filing an injury claim against Holland America Cruises yourself).
Our attorneys can also provide answers to common questions including do I have a case, do I really need a lawyer, how much will it cost to file a lawsuit and what is my case worth?

That is what we do for you – that is what you can expect from our firm and our attorneys. And while we can not guarantee results in the courtroom – no attorney can – we do guarantee that we will work diligently to achieve the best possible result for you.

If you choose to have us represent you, we’ll send a retainer package. From there, we’ll represent you and work toward resolution, either through a settlement with the cruise line or through a decision made by the court.
Remember, there is no fee charged to you for our services. We work on a ‘contingency fee‘ basis which means there is no charge for our services unless you receive compensation from the cruise line.
Our clients need help! It’s why they turn to us investigate their injury claims and file lawsuits on their behalf against the cruise lines for slip and fall accidents, swimming pool accidents, cases of medical negligence, rape and sexual assault and crew member injury claims.
