Boating Accidents

My firm represents clients in Illinois and in particular the Peoria, Tazewell, Fulton and Woodford county areas who have suffered personal injuries or lost loved ones in boating accidents and collisions. Many factors can contribute to a boating accident either on a privately owned vessel, a personal watercraft (jet ski) or even a ferry. Some of these factors include:


  • Alcohol
  • Driver error
  • Driver inexperience
  • Nighttime Boating
  • Equipment failure
  • Adverse weather and/or water conditions

In Illinois a boat operator and its owner must exercise the highest degree of care to prevent injuries to those passengers in the boat or swimmers or others in the waters or boats around them. I will discuss your situation and go over the options available to you, as well as work with insurance companies and other parties involved in your case to make sure all your needs are handled quickly and appropriately.

If you have suffered an injury or lost a loved one to a boating accident, call attorney Peter LaSorsa at 309-712-1145 or contact attorney Peter LaSorsa online to set up a FREE consultation to discuss your legal options.
