Areas of Practice | Boating Accidents
Boating accidents are usually caused by one of three factors: an inexperienced boater, an intoxicated operator or a boat malfunction. More than a third of both fatal and non-fatal boat accidents are alcohol related.

The most common types of boating accidents in Louisiana include:
  • Collisions with other boats, personal watercraft or swimmers
  • Slip or fall due to wet surface
  • Boat sinking or tipping
  • Operator Inattentiveness
  • Inexperienced operators
  • Speeding
  • Alcohol Consumption
Your boating accident injuries, if they are the fault of another’s negligence, or faulty equipment, may entitle you to compensation for those injuries.
