Types of Cruise Ship Accidents on Norwegian Cruises

Rapes, drownings, and many other types of accidents aboard Norwegian ships have caused substantial harm to crew members, young children, elderly passengers, and cruise passengers of all ages. Like all of the cruise lines, NCL has a significant number of rapes and sexual assaults. NCL has also created dangerous situations by encouraging excessive intoxication with the all-inclusive alcohol options available on some of its ships.

When Norwegian cruise ship accidents arise because of the company’s negligence or because of a failure to take reasonable steps to protect crew members and passengers from harm, a Miami, FL cruise ship injury lawyer should be sought to provide assistance to the victims seeking compensation for their losses. You may be able to recover compensation for a range of issues such as:

• Cruise ship passenger injuries
• Crewmember injuries
• Cruise ship rape and assault
• Passenger disappearances
• Passenger overboard accidents
• Passenger drowning incidents
• Shore excursion injuries
• Cruise ship medical malpractice
• Flowrider accidents
• Cruise ship class actions

What to Look for in a Norwegian Cruise Line Accident Attorney

Cruise ship injury cases are unique. They can involve a number of issues that aren’t present in most other types of personal injury cases. For example, cruise ships are subject to maritime law, so many of the principles that apply to injuries on land work differently when you suffer an injury on a ship. Even a highly experienced personal injury lawyer may find themself lost at sea when confronted with a cruise ship injury case.

1. Igac v. Norwegian Cruise Line- $662,165 jury verdict

   A waiter slipped on the floor of a lifeboat and fell out into the water seven stories below
   Igac was a Turkish waiter on one of Norwegian’s ships. During a lifeboat drill, another crewmember got into Igac’s way, causing him to step back. Igac slipped on the floor of the lifeboat and fell out into the water seven stories below, suffering injuries to his back, knee, and elbow. Norwegian argued that Igac’s back injuries were preexisting and that he should not have been standing up in the lifeboat. We enlisted several experts to help prove Igac’s claim. A jury found that Norwegian was 85% responsible for the accident and awarded Igac $662,165.
