Greetings, I am an attorney with extensive experience in personal injury litigation, and I am here
Colorado’s scenic lakes and rivers offer endless opportunities for boating fun. But when a peaceful day on the water turns into a nightmare crash, the injuries can be devastating.
If you’ve been hurt in a boating accident caused by someone else’s carelessness, the skilled legal team at Kennedy Injury Law in Castle Rock is here to help. We’ll navigate the complex waters of maritime law to hold the negligent party accountable and secure the compensation you deserve.
Boating crashes are often the result of operator error or recklessness. Common causes include:

Victims often face a lifetime of medical treatment, lost income, and diminished quality of life. Our mission is to secure the financial resources you need to pay your bills, support your family, and get the best possible care now and in the future.

Unlike car insurance, boaters are not required to carry liability coverage in Colorado. This can create significant obstacles to securing fair compensation after an accident.

Colorado’s waterways are subject to both state and federal maritime regulations. This includes laws on boating under the influence, required safety equipment, navigation rules, and operator education requirements. A knowledgeable boating accident attorney can determine which laws apply to your case.
Yes. Boating accident cases involve a complex interplay of state, federal, and admiralty laws. Insurance companies will exploit this complexity to deny liability and minimize your payout. An experienced attorney can level the playing field and fight for the full compensation you deserve.
It depends. Colorado follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover compensation as long as your percentage of fault is less than the other party’s. However, your damages will be reduced by your assigned percentage of blame. An attorney can help minimize allegations that you were at fault.
If the at-fault boater lacks insurance, you may be able to turn to your own boating or homeowner’s policy for coverage. Your health insurance may also cover some of your medical bills. An experienced lawyer can identify all possible avenues for compensation.
Generally, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in Colorado. However, certain factors may extend or shorten this deadline. The best way to protect your rights is to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after the crash.
