A day on the water can turn dangerous in seconds

Boating on Alberta's lakes and rivers carries real risk, from operator inexperience and impairment to equipment failure. When someone else's negligence causes a collision, a fall, or a drowning, the consequences are severe. We pursue every liable party, including operators, rental companies, and insurers.

Injuries on the water are serious and the claims are complex. Get a free, confidential review of your Alberta boating accident, no fee unless we win.

Boat Accident Lawyer: common questions

The operator was a friend or family member. Do I really claim?
The claim is against their insurance policy, not their savings. That is what the coverage exists for, and serious injuries need real compensation regardless of the relationship.
Does it matter that alcohol was involved?
Impaired operation strengthens the negligence case considerably, though insurers may raise policy issues. Either way, do not speculate to any insurer before getting advice.
I signed a rental waiver. Is my claim gone?
Not necessarily. Waivers have limits, especially around gross negligence and how the waiver was presented. Have us read it before you conclude anything.
What deadline applies to boating injury claims?
Generally Alberta's 2-year limitation, but maritime law can complicate matters. Call early so nothing lapses.
