Jacksonville Boating Accident Lawyer

Boating is popular in Jacksonville, and thousands of people enjoy this activity every year. State law strictly regulates the operation of all types of watercraft on the lakes, rivers, and coast, and when an individual causes an accident through failure to abide by law, the victim often has grounds for a personal injury claim.

Whether you were injured on a jet ski, canoe, motorboat, speedboat, sailboat or a yacht, you can greatly increase your chances of receiving the settlement you deserve by retaining the services of Jason K.S. Porter. Our firm fights for the rights of the injured to receive compensation, and we will do everything we can to assist you at this difficult time.

Florida Boating Laws

Florida laws regulate the use of watercraft, including boats and jet skis. With the vast amount of waterways in Florida, many people enjoy water sport activities. Accidents involving boats and jet skis can result in serious injuries or wrongful deaths. Injuries can include fractures, dislocations, amputations, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury, internal organ damage, coma, and drowning. Victims often require hospitalization and rehabilitation before returning to their prior lifestyle.

If your accident was caused by another person's negligence, you deserve to be compensated for your pain and suffering, as well as for the financial costs associated with the injury. These can include your ambulance bill, emergency medical treatment, hospital bills and your expenses for any type of rehabilitative treatment you will require. You can also claim compensation for the money you will lose by missing work during your recovery.

Many people who have suffered boating injuries go under-compensated or receive a smaller settlement than they deserve, but a Jacksonville boating accident lawyer from our firm will represent your claim to help you pursue the maximum amount possible.

    "This firm is head and shoulders above anyone."
    I met Jason 13 years ago in a case I had. He wasn't my first choice of lawyer originally. Our original lawyer was unable to perform the task needed at the time. Jason took our case over and worked his magic in the courtroom. People, the is no substitute for a court case. This firm is head and shoulders above anyone. If you want to go generic with your cereal that's fine. You can buy Fruit Rings instead of Froot Loops. But when choosing an attorney and your life is on the line, go with this firm. You get what you pay for. And by Picking Porter, you get so much more. Since then my entire family has used this firm for random cases. All of which we have prevailed. Most recently, Chris Craun family law attorney has helped us win yet another case. His outstanding outlook and attention to the details and knowledge of the law was the difference. Chris comes from this same tree. They know people and the law. Do not mess up by acquiring sub-par representation. You should pick Porter before your counterpart does!!!

    "Nicole Carlucci is an absolutely amazing attorney."
    DIVORCE is one of the toughest things that you will ever experience in your life, especially when you have 4 young children involved. As a father fighting for 50% custody of my children this wasn't gonna be an easy task. Nicole Carlucci is an absolutely amazing attorney. Not only did she help me get 50% custody of my children, she absolutely destroyed the opposing attorney. They wanted 800$ a month child support, (I ended up paying 250$ a month) on 4 children. I would highly recommend Nicole Carlucci for any legal needs. Nicole Carlucci is always prepared & very professional.

    "They were very kind and extremely knowledgeable AND patient."
    Just wanted to say thank you to Attorney Carlucci and paralegal Ms. Rasulova. They were very kind and extremely knowledgeable AND patient. Hopefully I will not need an Attorney in the future, BUT if I do it will be Pick Porter.
