Fun in the sun and days on the water are a way of life for South Florida residents, and it is unfortunate that tragic boating accidents happen, too. Serious injuries and even fatalities can result from unsafe or negligent boating trips.
Unfortunately, most of these boating accidents could be prevented. When accidents occur, it is usually because the operator of the vessel was not paying attention, was acting recklessly or moving at an unsafe speed. Additionally, alcohol can play a factor in boating accidents, as can a lack of education or experience in operating the vessel. Regardless of the cause, if you or a loved one has been injured in a boat accident, a West Palm Beach boat accident lawyer is available to assist in recovering compensation for your damages and ensuring that you have an advocate by your side throughout the entirety of the legal process. To learn more or begin working on your lawsuit, consult with an injury attorney in Palm Beach Gardens today.
Almost 5,500 boating accidents were reported to the United States Coast Guard in 2006, and more than 700 of those accidents included fatalities. The accidents are not limited to the average boat but also include jet skis, wave runners, and other recreational vessels. And just as with our nation’s roadways, our waterways are becoming more congested, increasing the risk of a boating accident.
