Miami attorneys are at the center of an emerging wave of litigation from the region\u2019s bustling tourism sector.<\/p>\n

And they say alcohol and the lack of law enforcement officers at sea contribute to the spike in lawsuits that follow the surge in violent attacks.<\/p>\n

The Port of Miami has been re-crowned as the world\u2019s busiest cruise port, taking the title from Port Canaveral, recording nearly 7.3 million passengers in the fiscal year 2023, shattering the port\u2019s previous 2019 record, according to Cruise Lines International Association.<\/p>\n

International litigation and arbitration attorney Gary E. Davidson<\/a> represents clients from many parts of the globe at Diaz, Reus & Targ. He is also an adjunct law professor at the Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad Law Center and Co-author of \u201cDon\u2019t Fall Asleep at the Helm: Cruise Line Passenger Ticket Contracts and the Pitfalls of Personal Injury Litigation in U.S. Courts.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davidson said the nature of the design of the mass marketing campaign undertaken by the cruise industry can be fraught with peril.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe goal is to fill that ship,\u201d Davidson said. \u201cThey cut their rates as they need to accomplish that, and what you\u2019re going to get in that mass market are people who are troublemakers. Maybe two or three, maybe five or 10 are going to be troublemakers, but they are there for the wrong reasons.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davidson began his career defending cruise lines, then switched to hotel and cruise line plaintiff representation.<\/p>\n

He represents the family of a 24-year-old Wisconsin woman who allegedly drank poisoned alcohol. The wrongful death lawsuit is against a Mexican resort, where the woman died in the pool after ordering a drink at the bar.<\/p>\n

\u201cCruise lines have a very delicate balance to strike,\u201d Davidson said. \u201cOn one hand, people want to go on cruises to have fun and drink. Let\u2019s just be candid about it. There is an element of people who go to all-inclusive hotels, and they go on cruise lines who are interested in the drinking aspect as perhaps the No. 1 joy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The attorney cautions passengers not to become clients by keeping their distance from people who are perceived to be shady or risky because they might very well be that.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyone who practices in this area, there is repetition,\u201d Davidson said. \u201cA number of these sexual assault cases have patterns to them. And unfortunately, one of those patterns is alcohol abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n
