Kentucky’s beautiful lakes and rivers include Kentucky Lake, Lake Barkley, Lake Cumberland, Reelfoot Lake, Nolin River Lake, the Mississippi River, the Cumberland River, and the Ohio River, among others. Because the water is open to all tourists and locals alike, accidents are bound to happen, causing injuries.

Since 1998, our team has handled the following types of accidents that have resulted from using boats:

• Fires
• Passenger falls
• Speeding
• Capsize accidents
• Explosions
• Fires
• Boat collisions
• Collisions with commercial vessels
• Reckless boating
• Boating under the influence (BUI)

Depending on the nature of the boating accident, injuries can range from minor to catastrophic, and include bruises and abrasions, sprains and fractures, broken or crushed limbs, spinal cord and neck injuries, paralysis, internal bleeding, and head and brain trauma. Drowning is, of course, always a possibility whenever individuals are near or in a body of water.
