Million Dollar Cruise Ship Negligence Verdict

A 31-year-old man was working as a chef aboard a Celebrity Cruises cruise ship. After experiencing headaches and facial pains, his employers flew him to Santo Domingo for emergency surgery. They implanted a pacemaker, and after the surgery the chef experienced severe injuries and had to use a walker. Deborah J. Gander and Ervin A. Gonzalez sued the cruise line for ordering unnecessary surgery and claimed that it sent the chef to Santo Domingo to save money on medical treatment. A jury sided with our client and awarded a one million dollar verdict.
