Serving Weston and Western Broward County
Weston is a master-planned community in western Broward County where lakes, community pools, and waterway-side living are part of nearly every neighborhood. With water comes risk — and when a drowning or serious water accident happens, the consequences can be devastating for families.
Baker Legal Team represents individuals and families affected by water-related injuries across Weston and the surrounding communities of western Broward County. With 35+ years of trial experience and over $400 million recovered for injury victims, our firm is recognized as one of Florida’s leading advocates in drowning, boating, jet ski, and water park injury cases.

- Lake and canal accidents, common in master-planned communities where lakes border yards, walking paths, and parks
- Boating and jet ski accidents, including operator negligence and boating under the influence
- Watercraft defects and malfunctions, including off-throttle steering failures and other manufacturer issues
- Resort and hotel pool accidents involving inadequate supervision, missing safety equipment, or poor maintenance
- Water park incidents at parks across South Florida
- Cruise ship and shore excursion injuries handled under maritime law
Why Specialized Water-Accident Counsel Matters
Water accident cases are rarely straightforward. Homeowners’ associations, property managers, resort operators, and boat manufacturers often deny responsibility, while their insurers work aggressively to minimize payouts. Evidence can disappear quickly — pools are reopened, decks are cleaned, lakefront fencing or signage may be repaired, and damaged equipment can be discarded within days.
When we become involved early, we move to preserve surveillance footage, obtain incident reports, review HOA records and maintenance logs, and document the scene before it changes. We also work with medical professionals to understand the full impact of oxygen deprivation, brain injury, and other water-related trauma so any settlement or verdict reflects the future care, therapy, and support you and your family may need.
