Florida Cruise Ship Accident Injury Lawsuits

Approximately 100 million tourists visit Florida every year and tourism is one of Florida’s top industries.  Unfortunately, some of the 100 million tourists will sustain an accident resulting in injuries or death due to the negligent actions of another.  Some of these injuries stem from motor vehicle accidents, while many others are injured due to hazardous conditions or other malfeasance while cruising on a cruise ship.  When a visitor to Florida has been injured, they may still pursue their claim throughout the law firm.  Injured tourists still have legal rights regardless of whether they reside in another U.S. state or a foreign country.

Due to the tremendous volume of visitors traveling through the state, Florida’s legal system requires advancement in cruise ship injury and death cases.  This is because cruise ships are often based in other countries. If a cruise ship ticket lists the U.S. District Court of Florida in Miami, Miami is the jurisdiction for redressing injuries suffered while either at mooring or sea.  Therefore, injured cruise ship passengers should seek the help of a cruise ship personal injury attorney to prosecute their case. 

Filing a personal injury claim in Florida courts when the victim or victim’s family resides in another country or state can be complex.  However, with the advent and widespread acceptance of videotaped depositions, electronic transmission of medical records, online conferences, standardization of medical records, and other technological advancements, clients who live afar can work closely with their accident injury attorneys.
