If you or someone you love has been seriously injured in a boating accident that you believe was caused by someone’s negligence, you should speak with a personal injury lawyer right away who can help determine whether you have a boating accident claim on your hands. A personal injury attorney can also help you if you have sustained a head injury caused by another person's careless or negligent behavior.
the following are risk factors that often lead to water-related injuries:
- Lack of supervision and barriers (such as pool fencing).
- Recreation in natural water settings (such as lakes, rivers, or the ocean).
- Recreational boating. Boating carries risks for injury.
- Alcohol use. Alcohol use is involved in about 25% to 50% of adolescent and adult deaths associated with water recreation.
- Seizure disorders. For persons with seizure disorders, drowning is the most common cause of unintentional injury death, with the bathtub as the site of highest drowning risk.
