Many spend time on the lake during the summer, enjoying recreational boating and riding jet skis or personal watercraft. Unfortunately, accidents don’t stay on shore, and life isn’t always a beach. Slips and falls occur, as do horrific injuries and even death.

Like cars, causes of accidents on the water include negligence, speeding, distracted driving and driving under the influence. However, add the natural danger of water and a completely different set of laws governing watercraft. This results in a complicated situation.

If you’ve been injured due to no fault of your own, we can help you navigate the waters. Don’t go it alone. You need a life preserver. Contact us for a free consultation.
