Lipcon, Margulies & Winkleman, P.A. are thrilled that the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has recognized that a jury will decide whether Royal Caribbean is responsible for not implementing longstanding safety devices designed to prevent falls from windows. These standards have been implemented in many of the largest hotel chains in the world and have become an industry standard that Royal Caribbean has refused to follow. We look forward to continuing our fight for justice for Chloe Wiegand and to make cruise ships safer.
