Mase Seitz Briggs

For over three decades we have worked with some of the largest cruise lines in the world handling all sorts of claims. In addition to working for the cruise lines, we also handle land-based claims like serious personal injury, sexual assaults, premises liability, dram shop and more. What makes our firm different is that we do not shy away from the courtroom. Our attorneys look forward to litigating and we have handled cases and arbitrations around the world.

When it comes to maritime law, perhaps no other law firm is as well suited to handle a case as Mase Seitz Briggs. Curtis Mase, our founder and managing partner, is a board certified civil trial lawyer. Many cases that he has worked on have helped shaped maritime law as it is interpreted today. Maritime law encompasses many of the same issues that may arise on land, they simply occur aboard a vessel or, generally, in the water. However, what many people fail to realize is that once a matter arises in this setting there are other laws and legal intricacies that complicate how maritime cases are viewed by the court. It is important to seek the counsel of attorneys that understand these intricacies.

Our work with the cruise lines is active and, as such, we do not take on matters dealing with passengers aboard cruises. When it comes to plaintiff cases, we strictly focus our practice on recreational boating, water-based activities, such as, jet skiing, parasailing, scuba diving and snorkeling, and other similar activities.

Curtis Mase has built a reputation in Miami and beyond for handling complex maritime injury, sexual assault and liability for alcohol service cases.
