What is the statute of limitations if I was injured while on board a cruise ship?
A. The statute of limitations is typically one (1) year or shorter if you sue for injuries aboard a cruise ship. In some instances, it can be as little as 6 months! This is very important because if you do not file a lawsuit within that time, your claim will be forever barred. You should read your ticket and rules which accompany your cruise ship ticket to determine the statute of limitations for your case.
