Boating Accidents

The Murray Law Firm has represented numerous clients throughout Georgia who have been injured in boating or water sports-related accidents.

Most boating accidents occur because the person navigating the vessel operated it in a negligent manner.  In fact, a recent Coast Guard report report cited careless or reckless operation, operator inattention, and excessive speed as the top three factors contributing to boating accidents.

Under the law, a boat or personal watercraft operator and its owner is required to exercise the highest level of care in order to prevent injuries to passengers, swimmers and other boaters. However, many boat operators do not exercise such due care. Resulting from an operator's recklessness, innocent individuals have suffered serious and life-disabling injuries. If you have been injured in a boating accident, you may be entitled to compensation for your damages..
