Boating Accidents

Owners and operators of boats in Colorado can be held financially liable for injuries they cause due to drunk driving, recklessness or general negligence on their part. Not only does this mean boat owners and operators are liable for injuries in accidents they cause, it also means they are liable for injuries that result from the unseaworthiness of their vessels. If someone in Colorado drowns because a boat did not have life preservers or if a fire or explosion on board was caused by poor maintenance, boat owners can be held financially liable. At the Law Offices of Weselis & Suchoparek LLC, The Fast Filers, we represent people injured in boating accidents on our Colorado Lakes and Rivers. We interview eyewitnesses, work with investigators, recover police reports and expose drunk boat driving, safety violations and general negligence that leads to injuries and fatalities on lakes and rivers.

Almost every year, there are accidents involving boating and alcohol on the various Colorado lakes and Rivers. Since it may take law enforcement some time to respond to a drunken boating accident, forensic issues can arise which make it in one's best interests to work with an experienced boating accident attorney. Insurance companies interested in reducing the amount they have to pay in claims will often try and shift blame away from their policy holder and onto you, the injury victim. They may argue there is not enough evidence to prove a boat operator was drunk. We have the experience and access to resources needed to establish fault and hold drunk boaters liable for the injuries they cause throughout Colorado's lakes and rivers.
