Boating Accidents

Florida Boating Accident Lawyers

Case Evaluation Form

When attorneys refer to “boating accidents,” they mean any accident in any type of watercraft in which a serious injury resulted from someone else’s negligence. Serious injuries can occur in yacht, jet ski or other boat crashes, or can occur on commercial boating and cruise ship accidents in which no boating collision occurred.  In short, if any operator of any watercraft is negligent and causes serious property damage and / or serious injury or death in your family, you have a right to be compensated.

Boating and watercraft accidents can be very complex, involving state, federal and maritime regulations, and should only be entrusted to a superior law firm. From our offices in Pensacola, Florida, the law firm of Levin Papantonio Thomas Mitchell Echsner & Proctor, P.A. has become a national leader in personal injury lawsuits. At one point we achieved the largest personal injury verdict in Florida history, and ten of our verdicts have exceeded $10 million.
