FAQ

Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how we may assist you with your case.

  • Can I File a Claim If I Signed a Waiver?

    Waivers are designed to protect operators from liability, but they may not be effective in certain cases, such as when the accident was caused by gross negligence, reckless conduct, or intentional actions.

    Moreover, if the waiver was not properly drafted or explained or if it violates public policy, it can be contested.

  • Common Boating Accidents in Las Vegas

    Las Vegas, despite being a desert city, sees its fair share of boating accidents, particularly in nearby water bodies like Lake Mead, Lake Las Vegas, and Lake Sahara, among others. Common boat accidents and emergencies include:

    • Collisions with other boats or objects 
    • Mechanical failures due to poor boat maintenance 
    • Operating a boat under the influence of alcohol or drug
    • Overloading boats
    • Flooding
  • Who Can Be Liable for a Boating Accident in Las Vegas?

    Liability often falls on the boat operator first before considering other parties. This is especially true if their negligence or recklessness caused the accident. The boat owner might also be liable, if they were negligent in maintaining the boat. The same applies if they allow an unqualified person to operate such a vessel, putting the safety and lives of passengers at risk. 

    In some cases, the manufacturer of the boat or its parts can be held responsible if our boating accident experts find that a defect contributed to the accident. 

    Boat rental companies offering boats to the public can also be liable if they fail to provide safe and properly functioning vessels. 

    In addition, if the accident involved a commercial vessel, the company operating the vessel could be held responsible if their negligence contributed to the accident.
