Serving Pompano Beach Injury Victims With Experience & Compassion
Pompano Beach sits along the Atlantic coast with miles of beachfront, inland waterways, hotel pools, and the Intracoastal Waterway running through the heart of the city. That environment makes water recreation a daily part of life here — and it also means water-related accidents are a persistent reality for residents and visitors alike. Whether you were hurt in a boating collision on the Intracoastal, a slip at a public pool, a jet ski crash near Hillsboro Inlet, or any other preventable accident, Baker Legal Team is ready to stand beside you.
Our firm, led by Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer Robert Baker, has spent more than three decades fighting for injured Floridians. With over $400 million recovered for clients across the state, we bring proven trial capability and genuine personal attention to every case we accept. When you call us, you speak with the attorney who will handle your case — not a call center.
Why Pompano Beach Clients Choose Baker Legal Team
Choosing a personal injury attorney after an accident is one of the most consequential decisions you will make. Here is what sets our firm apart for Pompano Beach residents:
- 35+ Years of Water Injury Experience — Robert Baker has handled boating accidents, swimming pool accidents, personal watercraft crashes, and cruise ship injuries longer than most Florida attorneys have practiced law.
- Over $400 Million Recovered — Our record reflects thousands of resolved cases and landmark verdicts, including a $39 million verdict against Yamaha that changed industry safety standards nationwide.
- Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer — Fewer than 1% of Florida attorneys hold this designation. It means Robert Baker has been tested, vetted, and recognized specifically for trial excellence.
- Broward County Court Experience — We know the local rules, judges, and procedures in Broward County Circuit Court, which matters when your case cannot be settled on fair terms.

Local Knowledge That Strengthens Your Claim
Pompano Beach and Broward County have specific ordinances that govern pool barriers, signage, and lifeguard requirements — both at private residences and commercial facilities. When these standards are violated, that violation can be central to establishing liability in your case. Our team knows these local codes and how to use them effectively.
The same applies on the water. South Florida’s coastal boating environment involves a mix of recreational vessels, commercial charters, and seasonal tourist traffic that creates unique accident dynamics. Whether the negligent party is a boat operator, a property owner, a management company, or a product manufacturer, we know how to identify every responsible party and pursue full accountability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after an accident should I contact an attorney?
As soon as possible. Evidence at accident scenes — pool conditions, vessel positions, witness accounts — can change or disappear quickly. Acting early gives our team the best opportunity to preserve what matters. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, even before you have decided whether to file a claim.
Will I have to pay anything upfront?
No. We handle all cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we win compensation for you. There are no out-of-pocket costs and no risk to you for consulting with our team.
What compensation can I recover?
Recoverable damages typically include medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and long-term rehabilitation costs. The specifics depend on the nature of your injuries and the circumstances of your case. Our team works to identify every category of loss and pursue the maximum recovery available under Florida law.
