Should I Get A Lawyer for My Watercraft Injury?
Maybe you are the type of person who is hesitant to sue anyone. Still, you could be experiencing pain, suffering, and discomfort, dealing with piles of unexpected medical bills, time off work, and being confused about how to move forward.
Shouldn’t someone pay for what happened? Having a Personal Injury attorney is, unfortunately, a reality for ensuring you get what you deserve and what is right.
Boating Accident Causes And Concerns
Several injuries, illnesses, and accidents can occur on the water. Just because you are away from the highway does not mean you are free from collisions and other concerns. Below are just a few of the boating accidents our Attorneys can help you with.
- Operator Inattention: When boat operators fail to pay attention to their surroundings, accidents can happen. Proving this negligence requires evidence of distraction or failure to monitor conditions.
- Excessive Speed: Boating at high speeds can lead to collisions and rollovers. Evidence of speed can be used to establish negligence.
- Alcohol Use: Operating a boat under the influence of alcohol is a leading cause of accidents. This is illegal, and proof of impairment can strongly support a negligence claim.
- Improper Lookout: Every boat should have someone responsible for watching for potential hazards. Failure to do so can lead to accidents and may constitute negligence.
- Operator Inexperience: Inexperienced operators are more likely to make errors that lead to accidents. Lack of proper training or certification can be used to establish negligence.
- Machinery Failure: Accidents can occur due to mechanical issues with the boat. If the operator did not properly maintain the boat, it could be seen as negligence.
- Running Out of Gas: This can lead to a boat being stranded in potentially dangerous conditions. Negligence might be established if the operator failed to check fuel levels before setting out.
Just being in the water does not mean you are free from serious injuries caused by a boating trip gone wrong. Some of the most common injuries we see from boating accidents include:
- Head Injuries: Boating accidents can lead to traumatic brain injuries, concussions, and other head injuries due to impacts with the boat, the water, or other objects.
- Spinal Cord Injuries: High-velocity collisions or falls from boats can cause spinal cord injuries, leading to paralysis, loss of sensation, or other permanent disabilities.
- Bone Fractures: The force of a boating accident can cause fractures in the arms, legs, ribs, or other bones, requiring extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation.
- Drowning and Near-Drowning: In severe boating accidents, individuals may suffer from drowning or near-drowning incidents, leading to brain damage, organ failure, or even death. In fatal boating accidents caused by another party’s negligence, we can pursue a wrongful death case.
- Cuts, Lacerations, and Burns: Boating accidents can lead to cuts from sharp objects, lacerations from propellers, or burns from explosions or fires onboard.
In addition to these injuries, you may suffer from a loss of quality of life and a loss of income if you cannot work while recovering. You may be facing additional expenses such as surgeries, medication, and in-home care in some instances.
