As we all know, Boston has plenty to offer whether you’re just visiting for the weekend or are lucky enough to live in a beautiful city. For one thing, many like to get out on the water. As well as the relaxed nature this can have, it can also lead to boating accidents.

If you’ve been involved in a boating accident and it wasn’t your fault, you may be entitled to compensation to recover medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering. With The Injury Firm, you can get started with a free boating accident consultation with one of our expert attorneys.

Potential Claims

Over the years, we’ve handled a number of different cases as boating accident attorneys so we’re lucky enough to offer experience in a variety of fields. While some were caused by speeding, others have been caused by overcrowded boats, lack of experience, inattentive operators or lookouts, alcohol/drugs, and poor safety equipment.

Identifying Boating Accident Liability

If you’re to receive compensation for a boating accident, the biggest task you face will be apportioning blame to a single party (or perhaps multiple parties). How can we determine who was responsible for the accident? It’s important to look at negligence, location, injuries of all involved, whether alcohol was consumed, and more.

If two boats have collided, it could be that one boat is wholly responsible or, in some cases, both parties are forced to take their share of the blame. If you believe the boating accident was not your fault, you could even be a passenger on the boat with a negligent operator, you may be able to recuperate some costs.

Introducing The Injury Firm

While trying to recover from an injury or grieve over the death of a loved one, the last thing you need is to be researching the finer details of Massachusetts maritime laws. Therefore, we can take this burden from your shoulders and build the case on your behalf.

As experienced and passionate boating accident lawyers, we’ll investigate the accident and gather all the facts so we can get a better idea of what really happened on the water. In truth, there are dozens of ways an operator could have been negligent, so we’ll look at the incident from all angles to determine responsibility.

Over time, we’ll talk to witnesses and compile evidence while also taking pictures of the boating accident scene. The more evidence we have, the more likely we are to be successful in our case and we can dedicate many hours to perfecting every little detail. Depending on the boat’s location at the time of the boating accident, either Massachusetts or maritime law will apply…we have the resources to deal with either. Likewise, we can support either a settlement or a full court case.
