Lake Cumberland Boating Accident Lawyers

If you’ve been injured in an accident involving a commercial boat, recreational watercraft, or jet ski on Lake Cumberland or any other Kentucky or Tennessee body of water, you may be entitled to compensation. The personal injury attorneys of Freeman Childers represent individuals who have been injured on waterways by the negligence of others. The rivers, lakes, and tributaries of Kentucky and Tennessee are heavily populated by commercial and private watercraft, and accidents regularly occur. Boat wrecks are an unwelcome but common occurrence on the water. And just as with car accidents, when two boats collide, there’s a high probability that someone will be injured.

At Freeman Childers, our personal injury lawyers represent individuals in a wide variety of water vessel related claims, including:

Boat collisions
Waterskiing accidents
Drowning
Diving accidents
Alcohol related incidents
Victim overboard
Improper safety equipment/procedures
Injuries while loading or unloading boats

In addition to accidents caused by boats or watercraft, our personal injury attorneys represent those who have been injured while being transported aboard larger vessels. This includes injuries related to navigational changes, slips and falls on decks, unsecured loads, etc.

At Freeman Childers, we deliver!

Boating accidents are unique in that most of the injuries occur in and around water, leaving very little physical evidence. However, an experienced Kentucky or Tennessee personal injury attorney can still build a solid case by obtaining medical records, photographing the vessels and injuries, deposing witnesses, etc. At the Corbin, KY personal injury firm of Freeman Childers, our attorneys are experienced with boat accidents. We pride ourselves on being the best-prepared attorneys in the courtroom on all of our personal injury cases. When you retain the services of a Freeman Childers personal injury lawyer, you will have a powerful ally in your pursuit of a fair settlement or jury award.

If you’ve been injured in a boating accident or aboard a vessel, you may be entitled to compensation by the at fault party or their insurer. Boating accidents tend to be serious in nature, leading to hospitalization, medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and even death.
