Texas Boating and Personal Watercraft Accidents

For a free consultation about your right to compensation for injuries suffered in a boating accident, contact O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath in San Antonio. Our Texas personal injury attorneys can help you collect the damages you need to support your recovery from injuries suffered while water skiing, boating, or operating a personal watercraft such as a jet ski or wave runner.

During the summer months, Carter Lake, the Missouri River, and other recreational boating areas can get highly congested with boaters, water skiers, and anglers. Accidents are bound to happen, especially when alcohol is involved. At O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath, we represent persons injured in accidents on the water such as the following:

• Boat collisions
• Propeller and motor accidents
• Fires on boats
• Collisions between boats and swimmers, water skiers, or operators of personal watercraft
• Drowning
• Dock and shore collisions
• Accidents involving underwater hazards

With 35 years of experience with the investigation and proof of personal injury claims, our Texas boating accident lawyers know how to evaluate the evidence, locate and interview witnesses, and identify the sources of insurance coverage available to satisfy your claims. While many serious injuries resulting from boating accidents can be compensated through negotiated settlement with the right proof, we also try boating injury lawsuits before a jury if an acceptable resolution cannot otherwise be reached.
