Boat Accident
We represented an individual injured in a collision between two boats on Falls Lake. We successfully argued the uninsured vessel was covered under a homeowner’s policy, and secured a settlement including coverage from one vessel’s insurance, the homeowner’s policy, and a personal contribution from one of the boat captains.
Attorney’s on Case

We represented an individual injured in a collision between two boats on Falls Lake. There was a vigorous dispute as to which boat captain was responsible for the collision, and as to whether the vessels were covered under an insurance policy. The vessel was not listed on any policy, but we argued it was stored in a garage at a home and should therefore be covered under that home’s homeowner’s policy. We secured an accident reconstructionist with experience in boating accidents, and successfully downloaded data from both vessel’s GPS systems. We obtained a tender of all coverage from the insurance for one vessel, $250,000 from the homeowner’s policy where we argued one vessel was stored in a garage, and $100,000 in personal contributions from one of the boat captains.
