Boat Accidents in Las Vegas: Justice for Injured Boaters and Passengers

Boating is a popular pastime in Southern Nevada, especially on Lake Mead and other nearby waterways. But when negligence or recklessness causes a boating accident, the consequences can be catastrophic. At The Walsh Firm, Ltd., we fight for the rights of those injured in boat accidents and help them recover the compensation they need to move forward.

Led by experienced personal injury attorney Robert J. Walsh, our firm is committed to holding negligent boat operators and other responsible parties accountable for their actions.

Boat Accidents - The Walsh Firm, Ltd.

Why You Need a Boat Accident Attorney

Boating accidents can be complex. They often involve multiple parties, such as boat operators, rental companies, passengers, or even manufacturers, and determining liability requires careful investigation. Insurance companies may try to deny or minimize your claim, especially when it involves watercraft.

When you choose The Walsh Firm, Ltd., you’re choosing an advocate who will:

  • Investigate the accident thoroughly, including reviewing weather reports, boat maintenance records, and witness statements
  • Work with maritime and accident reconstruction experts to identify causes and responsible parties
  • Handle all insurance negotiations to prevent lowball offers
  • Pursue your case in court if insurers refuse to compensate fairly

We take on the legal challenges so you can focus on recovery and healing.

Common Causes of Boating Accidents

Many boat accidents are preventable and caused by operator negligence or unsafe behavior. We represent victims of boating crashes resulting from:

  • Boating under the influence (BUI) of alcohol or drugs
  • Inexperienced or unlicensed operators
  • Distracted or reckless driving on the water
  • Speeding or wake violations
  • Equipment failure or mechanical defects
  • Overcrowded or overloaded vessels
  • Poor maintenance or rental company negligence

Whether the accident occurred on Lake Mead, Lake Mohave, or any Nevada waterway, we have the knowledge and resources to build a strong case for you.

Common Boating Accident Injuries

Because boat passengers often have limited protection, boating accidents can result in severe or even fatal injuries. Our firm has represented victims suffering from:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Drowning or near-drowning injuries
  • Burns or lacerations
  • Internal injuries

We work closely with medical professionals to document every aspect of your injuries and ensure your claim reflects the full scope of your losses.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

If you were injured in a boating accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses (current and future)
  • Lost wages or loss of future earning capacity
  • Property damage or boat repair
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional trauma
  • Wrongful death damages (for families who have lost a loved one)

Our goal is to help you recover not just physically, but financially and emotionally as well.
