San Diego Boating Accident Attorney

In a state that’s sunny and largely surrounded by open ocean, boating and watersports are wildly popular in our many coastal cities and towns. But with around 900,000 registered vessels, there are bound to be boating accidents out on the water. With 365 injuries that resulted from boating accidents in 2014, Landay and Roberts and our team understand that you deserve restitution for your trouble.

Boating Accident Statistics

The following information was provided by California State Parks Division of Boating and Waterways and the U.S. Coast Guard:

  • According to the Coast Guard, the highest contributing factor of boating accidents in 2014 was “operator inattention”, or distracted boat operators.
  • In the same study, the Coast Guard found that the primary contributing factor in boating accident fatalities was alcohol use.
  • In 2014, there were 11,119 personal watercraft, and 63 boating accidents in San Diego county.
  • The most common month for California boating accidents in 2014 was July
  • The most common time of day that California boating accidents occurred in 2014 was between 2 and 6 pm. Saturday and Sunday are also the most common days for accidents.

What To Do After a Boating Accident

Boating accidents don’t just cause thousands of dollars in damages, but can also result in serious injuries like contusions, head and neck injuries, fractures, burns and even shocks or amputations.

If you have been involved in a boating accident, it’s vital that the accident be reported right away. Seek help from law enforcement or beach patrols, and address any injuries in a hospital setting. Keep an eye out for any injuries that may appear in the days following the accident.

Once the accident has been reported, you will most likely need to report to insurance company representatives. In these cases, it’s also imperative that you have an experienced boating accident attorney on your side, and that’s where the team of Landay and Roberts comes in.

You May Be Compensated for Boating Injuries

If you or a loved one have been injured in a boating accident due to negligence, you or your loved one are entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, property damage, and more. You’re already stressed enough due to your injury, so seek out the team of Landay and Roberts to have your case reviewed for free.
