Boating is a virtually year-round activity in much of Texas, and certain lakes like Lewisville Lake are extremely popular for boaters. Unfortunately, some people who pilot boats are not as careful as they ought to be, all too often resulting in serious and even fatal accidents.
At Weinstein Law, our experienced Dallas boating accident attorneys are dedicated to pursuing fair compensation for accident victims and their families. If you've been injured or have lost a loved one due to negligent boating, don't hesitate to contact us for a free consultation.
Identifying the Causes of Your Boating Accident
Piloting a boat is not like driving a car. Boats don't turn or stop as easily as motor vehicles, and boaters must take special precautions to avoid injuring themselves, their passengers and others. Factors such as the following can play a major role in causing boating accidents:
- Loss of control due to inexperience with boating
- Boating under the influence of alcohol and drugs
- Negligent misuse of Jet Skis and other personal watercraft
- Heat exhaustion causing boaters to pass out
Our law firm represents boaters, passengers, swimmers and other people who have been injured in boating accidents caused by the negligence of others. We also pursue wrongful death claims on behalf of the families of people who have died in fatal boating accidents.
When you contact us about your case, we will immediately begin collecting evidence so that we can pursue every cent you are owed for the harm that has been done to you.
