Deaths on the High Sea Act (DOHSA) - Wrongful Death at Sea Lawyer

The Death on the High Seas Act, or DOHSA, applies to any death occurring beyond 3 nautical miles from the shore of any State or U.S. Territory. Liability under DOHSA may be premised on a variety of legal theories, including negligence, unseaworthiness if the decedent was a seaman, intentional conduct, strict liability, or products liability. Moreover, DOHSA is a broad Act that applies to nearly all decedents whose death occurred on the high seas no matter if they are maritime workers or non-maritime workers. One notable exception is that workers on certain oil rigs or platforms may be covered instead under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA). DOHSA may also apply to aviation accidents that occur beyond 12 nautical miles from the U.S. shore. In these cases, application of DOHSA may actually limit recovery for the families of those killed in a plane crash from those in a general wrongful death case. In addition to other types of maritime deaths, Brownsville Maritime Attorneys experienced in DOHSA will know how best to handle an aviation accident at sea and can help you if you have suffered such a loss.

What all this means for you if your loved one died aboard a cruise ship or other type of boat beyond 3 nautical miles from the U.S. shore is complicated. It is absolutely critical that you act quickly and hire an experienced Brownsville cruise ship lawyer to fight the cruise line on your behalf.
