Most Boating Accidents are Preventable
Each year, thousands of people throughout the United States suffer severe and life altering injuries as a result of boating accidents. In Nevada, there are a large number of boating accidents that take place in the Las Vegas area, and on Lake Meade in particular.
Tragically, most boating accidents are entirely preventable and are caused by the negligence of a boat operator who simply failed to utilize reasonable care for the safety of others. Examples of boat operator negligence include:
- Lack of attention to the safety of water-skiers
- Boating while intoxicated
- Reckless operation of a boat
- Negligent operation of a boat
- Failure to observe children or adults
- Boating at unsafe speeds too close to docks or shore

Child Injuries
Because many of the victims of boating accidents are young children or teenagers who are injured while water skiing, it is important for attorneys in this field of law to be sensitive to the unique issues raised by child injuries. Because children are so sensitive by nature and easily subjected to teasing by classmates, injuries that cause scaring or disfigurement can be particularly devastating to young children and teenagers.
Our attorneys take the time to listen closely to all clients and determine the nature of their injuries. When helpful or necessary, we have access to medical and psychological experts who can provide expert reports or testimony to assist with personal injury claims.
