Boating accidents can cause serious injuries, especially when safety precautions such as life jackets are not provided and insisted upon by the operator. Every responsible boat owner seeks out education on boating safety procedures and follows them.
Your accident may have also been caused by:
- Mechanical defects on the boat
- An intoxicated boat operator
- Negligence in the control of the boat
- Reckless operating of the boat such as speeding
The U.S. Coast Guard lists over a thousand articles on safety defects and recall notices that any boat owner should read through to ensure their vessel is as safe as possible. When operators fail to do this, we fight for your compensation.
If you have been injured in a boating accident in which another party was negligent in their responsibilities and caused the accident, you should contact our firm and speak with an attorney as early as possible after the incident. We offer a free consultation and will interview and gather information concerning the accident. We will be able to then advise you on what recourse you have and how to move forward and pursue financial compensation.
If you have sustained personal injury in a boat accident due to negligence or defective equipment, don't hesitate to contact a Sanford boating accident attorney at our firm.
