Who We Represent
Our attorneys provide representation to the families of cruise ship passengers and seaman who work on a marine vessel. We can also help families of harbor and longshore workers. The Death on the High Seas Act (DOHSA) gives families the right to recover damages for wrongful death while on the high seas. The Florida Wrongful Death Act also allows the families of anyone killed by another's negligence to sue for damages, including those who died while in Florida state territorial waters.
Helping You Move Forward
Under Maritime law, families of deceased seaman or cruise passengers have three years to file a wrongful death suit. However, it is usually a good idea to contact an attorney as soon as you can. It is easier to conduct an investigation and gather evidence if less time has passed.
We help families who have lost loved ones due to nearly any type of accident or negligence, including:
- Drowning
- Slip/trip and fall accidents
- Injuries sustained on shore excursions
- Collisions
- Jet ski accidents
- Assaults
- Work-related accidents
- Defective products
