Boating Accidents / Maritime Cases[ Back ]

Florida has the highest water sport accident rate in the United States. Boating, jet skiing, and water skiing are popular activities in Florida year round. Unfortunately, the negligent operation of such vessels result in serious injury or death all too often. Boating and watercraft accidents involve complicated legal and safety issues. The owner and operator of a watercraft has a duty to exercise a high degree of care in order to prevent injury or death to others.

Many different types of boating accidents can occur. Often they are recreational in nature. Often such accidents involve a much higher scale such as cruise ships, navy vessels, or maritime workers. There is a statute of limitations for filing a boating accident case so it is important to contact us as soon as possible so that your rights are protected.

The most common cause of injury and death in boating accidents is collisions with other boats. Other causes include slip and fall, reckless driving, drunk driving, inexperienced water craft operators or boat malfunctions.
