Cruise Ship Negligence
Cruise ship accidents, rape, or
cruise ship injury, and cruise ship death is caused by
cruise ship negligence and recklessness by cruise ship
operators who are liable for negligent premises liability and
breach of contract. These injuries are on the rise and require
special knowledge of maritime and local laws. Cruise lines often
believe they are outside our laws and fail to act reasonably.
Ehline wants to prove them wrong. Contact our experienced cruise
ship negligence attorneys and get justice now!
Many commercial ships have rules that require you to file a
claim within a few months, or you can't sue in court! If you or a
loved one a passenger on a Princess Cruise Liner, or someone who
was injured on a Carnival cruise ship, Canaveral cruise line,
Celebrity cruise line, Commodore cruise line, Costa cruise line,
Cunard cruise line, Disney cruise line, Norwegian cruise line,
Princess cruise line, Radisson cruise line, Renaissance cruise
line, Royal Caribbean cruise line, Seaborne cruise line, and cruise
ships like SilverSea Cruise Lines, or another cruise line, you may
be barred from suing under admiralty law. They are allowed to use
passenger tickets to limit the normal three year statute of
limitations. For example, they are allowed to use a forum selection
clause making the port of departure the only legal venue for an
injury claim to be litigated. Most of the major ocean liners are
based in Los Angeles, California, designate Los Angeles,
California, as the legal venue where a cruise line may be sued.
This means that if a
cruise ship passenger sues a shipping line somewhere else, in a
far off jurisdiction like Florida for example, and ignores the
forum selection clause, the law suit will typically be dismissed.
If that happens, and the one year statute has already expired, the
passenger will be left with no legal recovery against the cruise
line at all! Our California law firm has highly aggressive,
experienced admiralty law attorneys and lawyers offering legal
services in the entire State of California. Let our California law
firm handle your admiralty maritime case.
