When you’re hurt aboard a cruise ship, the cruise line has a head start, and most passengers don’t realize it. These cases involve international rules, foreign corporations, strict deadlines, and contracts written to limit your options.

At Potts Law Firm, our lawyers level the playing field, help identify who’s responsible, and help you take the next step. We’re here for you.

How a Lawyer Strengthens Your Cruise Injury Case

Cruise injury cases get complicated quickly. A cruise injury lawyer helps you hold the right parties accountable and protects your ability to recover financially.

Untangle Complicated Cruise Contracts

Cruise ticket contracts often limit where and when you can file a claim. We review these terms and make sure your case stays on track.

Identify All Responsible Parties

Cruise lines, excursion operators, maintenance crews, or medical staff may share responsibility. We look at every angle so nothing is missed.

Build a Strong Record

Passengers rarely get full documentation on board. We gather reports, photos, medical records, and witness accounts to secure what the cruise line may overlook.

Handle Insurance and Corporate Pressure

Companies move quickly to protect their interests. Our cruise injury attorneys step in early so you don’t deal with their representatives alone.

    FAQs About Cruise Injury Claims

    How long do I have to file a claim against a cruise line?

    Most cruise lines require written notice within a few months and a lawsuit within one year, which is much sooner than typical injury deadlines. These timelines are usually buried in the ticket contract, so speaking with a cruise ship injury lawyer early helps protect your ability to pursue a claim.

    Do I need a cruise ship injury attorney for my case?

    Cruise injury cases involve international waters, foreign corporations, and strict filing rules that can be tough to manage alone. A cruise ship injury attorney helps you understand your options, deal with the cruise line, and move your claim forward the right way.

    Does maritime law apply to cruise ship injuries?

    Yes, most cruise ship injury cases fall under maritime law, which has its own rules for negligence, liability, and compensation. An attorney familiar with these standards can explain how they affect your case and what steps to take next.

    Can I sue for injuries that happened during a shore excursion?

    Possibly. It depends on whether the excursion was operated by the cruise line or a contracted third party, and how responsibility was shared between them. A cruise injury lawyer can review the excursion agreement and determine who may be held accountable.
