What Causes Most Boat Collisions?

According to the U.S. Coast Guard, the most common causes of boating accidents in 2008 were: careless or reckless operation, operator inattention, driving without a proper lookout, operator inexperience and passenger or skier behavior. Most boat accidents could have been easily avoided had a boat driver exercised proper caution or care while out on the water.

Regardless of the cause, an experienced attorney can work to investigate the particular circumstances of your case to determine who should be held accountable. With proper legal representation, you may be able to recover money for medical expenses, future medical care, lost earnings and various other post-accident expenses.
