BOAT ACCIDENTS

Boat accidents occur frequently on the Space Coast and elsewhere in Florida. Some people are injured on the water because of the negligence of other boaters. Unfortunately, alcohol plays a role in many of these injuries, which can be serious and fatal. Poor judgment and inadequate safety equipment cause other accidents.

Whether the injury occurred during a recreational activity or involved a commercial vessel, people injured because of someone else's negligence have the right to be compensated for their losses. If you or a family member experienced a boat injury, you need a lawyer who can properly assess the situation and help you understand your legal rights.
