When our firm undertook the legal defense of a large number of passengers on board the NORMAN ATLANTIC that caught fire on 28 December 2014, despite the satisfactory compensation we subsequently obtained for our clients, we said never again but unfortunately, history repeats itself.

Another Italian ship on the Adriatic line the Euroferry Olympia again caught fire on 18 February 2022 and at this moment at least 11 people are already missing while the ship is being towed on fire.  Responsibilities have not yet been assigned but it is certain that they are many and scattered in many directions.

The damage is enormous and multiple and the legal treatment of responsibility requires special attention, as in the case of the Norman Atlantic. Our office, in coordination with our associates, maritime lawyers in Greece and Italy, within the framework of our international organization Global Justice Network, with whom we have jointly handled the Norman Atlantic case, is at the disposal of those involved in this tragic accident for any assistance or information without any obligation or commitment on their part.
