Start with the facts.
Build a path forward.
An injury on the water can raise questions about operators, vessel owners, rental companies, and insurance. We help identify the facts that matter.
Evidence worth preserving
Record the vessel information, operator details, incident location, witness contacts, and any report made to authorities.
How we approach your claim
We begin by listening to your account, identifying potentially responsible parties, and reviewing available insurance. If we accept your case, we work to document the incident and its effect on your life.
Medical expenses, time away from work, and future needs can all require careful documentation. The available recovery depends on the facts and applicable law; no result is guaranteed.
Local support, wherever you start

How do I get started?+
Call (239) 397-1950 for a free consultation, or sign in to send a consultation request. A request does not establish an attorney-client relationship.
What should I keep after an accident?+
Keep photographs, incident reports, witness contacts, insurance letters, treatment records, and receipts. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.
How much does a consultation cost?+
Kobes Legal offers a free initial consultation. Any representation, attorney fees, and responsibility for costs will be explained in a written agreement.
Can I check my case online?+
Yes. Sign in to your client portal to view updates posted by the firm and upload accident photographs. A new request remains pending until the firm accepts representation.
How long do I have to bring a claim?+
Deadlines depend on the claim, incident date, and other facts. Many Florida negligence actions have a two-year limitation period, but exceptions and other requirements can apply. Contact a lawyer promptly to evaluate your specific deadline.
