Miami Cruise Ship Injury Lawyers Who Bring the Heat
Get paid after a cruise ship accident. We hold cruise lines accountable.
Cruising out of Miami should feel like paradise, not a nightmare. But when cruise lines put profits over people, passengers and crew members pay the price.

When they do, you need a Miami cruise ship injury lawyer who knows how to make the cruise lines pay.

Our team of cruise ship injury lawyers fights for maximum compensation for passengers and crew members hurt aboard ships sailing out of ports like PortMiami and Port Everglades, the Cruise Capital of the World.

Common cruise ship injuries
Cruise ships are floating cities, and with that scale comes danger. The most common cruise ship injuries include:
- Slips, trips, and falls: Wet decks, worn flooring, and poor lighting make falls one of the leading causes of serious injuries onboard.
- Sexual assault and physical fights: Inadequate security and alcohol overservice create conditions where assaults can occur, and victims deserve justice.
- Medical negligence: Many onboard medical centers are staffed by underqualified personnel who fail to diagnose or properly treat emergencies.
- Excursion accidents: Tour operators in foreign ports often cut corners on safety, leaving passengers unprotected during risky activities.
- Illness and outbreaks: Legionnaires’ disease, food poisoning, and norovirus can spread fast when ships neglect sanitation standards.
- Activity and equipment injuries: Rock climbing walls, pools, slides, and fitness areas frequently cause preventable injuries when poorly maintained.
Whether it’s a back injury from a fall or emotional trauma after an assault, Romanow Law Group digs into the details, investigates every angle, and builds a case designed to win.
Why cruise ship injuries happen
Most cruise ship accidents aren’t random. They’re the result of negligence. Unsafe conditions, improper training, and reckless cost-cutting all play a role. Common causes include:
- Slippery decks without warning signs
- Poorly maintained elevators and escalators
- Understaffed medical units
- Negligent event planning
- Overserved passengers
- Inadequate crowd control during drills or emergencies
- Violent or intoxicated crew members
- Medical malpractice
Cruise companies often claim they couldn’t have prevented an accident, but the truth is, they’re required to protect passengers and crew from foreseeable harm. When they don’t, we make them answer for it.
The laws that apply to cruise ship injury claims
Cruise injury claims are governed by maritime law, also known as admiralty law. That means different rules, tighter deadlines, and tougher opposition. Most cruise tickets include a forum-selection clause, requiring passengers to file lawsuits in Miami federal court, even if the ship was in international waters. Some claims must be filed within one year of the injury.
If you were hurt aboard a ship owned by Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian, MSC, Virgin Voyages, Disney, or any other cruise line, you’ll need lawyers who know how to fight them on their home turf. Each of these corporations has teams of attorneys protecting their bottom line. You need a team that protects yours.
Romanow Law Group handles the entire process, from identifying where and how to file, to collecting evidence, interviewing witnesses, and navigating complex maritime regulations.
