Louisville Boat Accident Attorneys

Kentucky Personal Water Craft and Barge Crash Attorneys

The state of Kentucky enjoys more miles of navigable waterways than any other state. Unfortunately, the Louisville area is also one of the top ten locations for barge and boat accidents. Every year many recreational boats and commercial barges are involved in injury accidents and fatal crashes near the McAlpine Locks and Dam and Falls of the Ohio River areas, as well as along the many miles of the state's inland waterways.

At the personal injury law firm of The Gailor Law Offices, PLLC, we help boat owners, passengers and maritime workers recover fair compensation for injuries caused by the careless behavior of other people and businesses. Our boat accident injury attorneys are highly regarded for their knowledge of maritime law and the International Regulations for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea, or "colregs". Their intimate grasp of these rules of the road on the water, allows us to build strong cases for clients who have been injured due to the negligence of other boat owners and barge operators.

Contact our skilled boat accident lawyers at the Gailor Law Offices, PLLC, to schedule a free initial consultation regarding your boating injuries. We handle your personal injury claim on a contingency basis, which means you pay no attorney's fees until we recover compensation for your injuries. Court costs and case expenses are your responsibility.
