Dade County Brain Injury Attorney

Ms. Amaran is now left severely incapacitated and unable to work or speak more than a few phrases.  She needs round-the-clock supervision according to the press release and the allegations in the court records. 

Royal Caribbean did not like the fact that Mr. Gerson issued a press release, which you can read here .  It filed a motion for injunctive relief seeking to obtain a gag order against Mr. Gerson to prevent him from exercising his First Amendment right of freedom of speech.  The cruise line also sought to punish Mr. Gerson and his disabled client, by seeking to dismiss the lawsuit and prevent a jury from listening to the facts of the case.    

The case is one of the most ferociously fought cases I have ever seen.  It has been pending since 2004 and has gone to the appellate courts already.  In 2010, the appellate court ruled that Royal Caribbean hindered the injured passenger's search for the whereabouts of the ship’s doctor by providing an address in care of an employment agency in South Africa.  In truth, the doctor had a residence in Florida, owned real property in Tampa, Florida, owned motor vehicles registered in Florida, and was actually working on the cruise line's own ships.      

I reviewed Royal Caribbean's motion at the courthouse.  It's light on the law to say the least.  It fails to cite the most relevant cases addressing the issue whether attorneys somehow lose their freedom of speech to talk to the press about pending cases.
