Holding Negligent Alabama Boaters Accountable For Your Damages

Boating is one of the most popular pastimes in Alabama. For some boaters and passengers, this means serious injuries as the result of a boat crash.

At Maloney-Lyons, our experienced boating accident injury attorneys can represent you in a boat crash claim. We serve the people of Mobile and the neighboring communities with all aspects of a personal injury claim or a wrongful death claim.

What Are The Most Common Causes Of Boating Accidents?

A variety of factors can contribute to boat accidents. In many cases, more than one factor is at play. Some of the most frequent causes of boating collisions are:

  • Drunk boating
  • Distracted boating
  • Underage boating
  • Inattentive boating
  • Speeding
  • Recklessness
  • Boat malfunctions
  • Poor weather conditions

Determining fault in a boat accident is not easy. The other boater or their insurance company may try to obscure the cause to avoid liability. Our personal injury lawyers have experience with many complicated boating claims. We gather evidence, interview witnesses and work with forensic experts to determine the source of fault. Then, we pursue maximum compensation for your damages.

Did A Fatal Boating Accident Take Your Loved One?

Accidents can be even more severe on the water than on land, leading to fatal injuries. If you lost your loved one because of a negligent boater, our team can help you with a wrongful death lawsuit. Through a wrongful death claim, you can recover compensation for your loved one’s lost wages, medical bills, funeral expenses and more.
