Mississippi Boating Accident Injury Attorneys

With the Mississippi River, Horn Lake, and other waterways throughout Northern Mississippi, boating is a popular way to enjoy life, work, and recreation. From leisurely pontoon rides to jet skiing, residents and visitors alike rely on safe navigation of these waters. Unfortunately, boating accidents do happen, and when they do, the consequences can be severe.

If you’ve been injured in a boating accident in Northern Mississippi, it can impact your ability to work, care for your family, and enjoy daily life. Medical bills, lost wages, and ongoing rehabilitation can quickly become overwhelming — especially if the accident was caused by someone else’s negligence.

Our attorneys prepare every case as if it’s going to trial, giving our clients maximum leverage and the best chance at a full recovery.

Common Causes of Boating Accidents in Northern Mississippi

Boating accidents can happen in many ways. Some of the most common causes we see include:

  • Negligent operation of a boat: Reckless driving, speeding, or failing to follow navigational rules
  • Faulty or poorly maintained equipment: Malfunctioning engines, steering, or safety gear
  • Operator intoxication: Alcohol or drugs impairing judgment and control
  • Collisions with other vessels or stationary objects: Docks, piers, or other boats
  • Environmental hazards: High water levels, strong currents, or debris in the water

Any of these incidents can result in serious injuries, including broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, or even wrongful death.

    - Christa D.
    After my first consult with him, I walked out of his office with confidence in my case.

    Wesley Hisaw has represented me with my post divorce modification as well as a faultless MVA case. Divorce is never easy, but mine was exceptionally complicated and sensitive in nature. I was let down by my previous attorney and my trust in legal representation was broken. After my first consult with him, I walked out of his office with confidence in my case. I felt I was exactly where I needed to be and genuinely trusted he would help me, which he did! He is worth every penny and highly recommend! He has ALWAYS been there when I needed his legal guidance and support, extremely responsive and his assurance has never failed me!

    - Keron S.
