A ship’s crew is its most valuable asset. Crew members injured in the service of the ship are entitled to prompt and adequate medical attention from a competent doctor. During recovery, they are entitled to receive money from their employer for their daily expenses. Unfortunately, the interest of most cruise lines and shipping companies is to maximize their profits, which is in direct conflict with the crew member’s desire to receive adequate attention and - in the case of permanent injury - adequate compensation.

We assist crew members in protecting their rights and obtaining the compensation they deserve. We answer questions regarding crew member’s rights for injuries on the job and about the protections extended to his family or his retirement benefits.
