Our attorneys believe it is important to bring the issues of maritime law to the forefront of public attention. As part of our commitment to providing the information the public needs, Charles Lipcon has written and made available the following books and electronic news resources:
The Cruise Line Law Reporter
The Cruise Line Law Reporter provides a monthly e-newsletter which summarizes notable maritime claims made against cruise lines. Because the cruise industry is international and claims may arise in multiple courts, many cases are unrecognized and go unreported. Our monthly summary brings these cases to the forefront so cruise passengers, crew members and other attorneys can keep abreast of legal developments.
The Cruise Ship Law Blog
This is our daily blog which not only provides ongoing updates on new developments in the legal field but also has details on accidents that occur and cases in which victims suffer injuries or even death because of the negligence of cruise lines. Keep up-to-date so you know what cruise lines are failing their passengers and how passengers’ rights are vindicated after injuries occur.
Unsafe on the High Seas – Top 30 Travel Book on Amazon now available as a 99c download!
Our downloadable eBook contains everything you need to know to keep yourself and your family safe when preparing to take a cruise. Dramatic cruise vessel mishaps like the Costa Concordia grounding are in the news far too often, but too many passengers go on cruises unprepared to deal with danger. This best-selling book by Charles Lipcon offers behind-the-scenes insight from one of the most experienced and recognized cruise lawyers in the industry. The book is chock full of realistic rules and practical advice so you can keep you and your family safe at sea.
Seamen’s Rights in the U.S.
Written by Charles Lipcon, this emergency guide is downloadable for free and provides the information that seamen need to be aware of in the immediate aftermath of an accident. The guide is available in eight languages- English, Spanish, French, Greek, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Korean- and will help you to protect your rights until a professional can be reached.

When you are at sea or in a foreign country, you may have limited access to the Internet and be unable to obtain emergency information or professional assistance in a time of need. This card contains vital emergency contact information and instructions to help you protect yourself. The card can be downloaded at no cost.
