Biography

Geoffrey Probst is a new and prized addition to Lipcon, Margulies & Winkleman, P.A. While only recently joining LM&W, attorney Probst brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the firm, having specialized in admiralty and maritime law for over 17 years. Attorney Probst has extensive experience in representing both plaintiffs and defendants in legal actions involving injured or deceased passengers and crew members in cruise ship accidents. In his earlier career, he was the senior in-house litigator for a major cruise line. Having worked on both sides of these claims gives attorney Probst a unique advantage when representing accident victims in personal injury claims. Mr. Probst has also litigated many cases involving land-based personal injuries and wrongful deaths.

In 2001, attorney Geoffrey Probst graduated from the prestigious Dickinson School of Law at Penn State University. He is licensed to practice law in Georgia and Florida on the state level and the U.S. District Courts for the Middle and Southern Districts of Florida at the federal level. Mr. Probst developed the in-house litigation department for Norwegian Cruise Lines and ran it for ten years. Attorney Probst currently serves on the Admiralty Law Committee of the Florida Bar.

After graduating from law school he worked for the State Attorney’s office as a prosecutor. Attorney Probst changed his focus to maritime defense, which led to his tenure at Norwegian Cruise Lines. After his time at Norwegian, he began representing plaintiffs in maritime and land-based personal injury suits. His reputation drew the attention of the partners at LM&W, where he has become an invaluable asset. An avid boater and SCUBA diver, attorney Probst saw maritime law as an opportunity to merge his affinity for the ocean with his legal career.
