Boating Accidents
The Berniard Law Firm represents personal injury clients in Louisiana who have been seriously injured or have lost a loved one in a boating accident or crash.
Causes of boating accident, whether on a public boat, a privately owned vessel, or a personal watercraft (such as a jet ski) can include:
- Driver inexperience
- Driver error
- Driving while intoxicated
- Faulty equipment
- Equipment failure
- Poor water or weather conditions
By law, the operator/driver of a boat and the owner of the boat are obligated to take the highest level of care in ensuring that boat passengers, swimmers in the water around the vessel, or passengers on other boats are not harmed or injured.
Our experienced boat accident attorneys can meet with you to talk about your options, and we will do everything we can to ensure that your needs are taken care of appropriately and quickly.
