New York Cruise Ship Injury Lawyer
New York City. The Big Apple. A city that never sleeps — and for good reason. From the bright lights of Times Square to the iconic Statue of Liberty, NYC offers a little bit of everything. It’s also one of the busiest cruise departure points in the world. Whether you’re sailing down to the Caribbean, heading for Bermuda, or crossing the Atlantic, New Yorkers love a good cruise.
But when things go wrong at sea — slips, falls, medical malpractice, or worse — you need an experienced cruise ship injury lawyer who knows maritime law inside and out. That’s where we come in.
At Holzberg Legal, we’ve spent over 40 years helping clients from all over the U.S., including New York City, get the justice they deserve after cruise ship injuries. We specialize in maritime law and personal injury cases, and we fight to ensure you and your family are properly compensated for your pain and suffering.

New York is home to one of the most active cruise ports on the East Coast, with ships sailing year-round from the Manhattan Cruise Terminal and Brooklyn Cruise Terminal. Here are the major cruise lines New Yorkers love:

What to Do If You’re Injured on a Cruise Ship
If you or a loved one suffer an injury while on a cruise, follow these steps to protect your rights:
- Report the Incident: Notify cruise staff and get an official incident report.
- Document Everything: Take pictures, videos, and gather witness information.
- Get Medical Attention: Visit the onboard doctor but follow up with a land-based specialist ASAP.
