5 Steps to Take After a Boating Accident Boost Your Chances of a Successful Personal Injury Claim!
Did you know that there are more than 1 million boats registered in Florida? We Floridians love zipping across the water. Unfortunately, this enjoyment of fun in the sun can sometimes lead to floating collisions. For the last decade, Florida has averaged 722 boating accidents and 65 boating accident-related deaths each year.
treatment creates a paper trail you can use in court. You may feel fine after the accident, but aches and pains could pop up later, so see a doctor either way, just in case. Step 3: Take photos. If you feel well enough, snap a few photos at the scene of the crash to record the weather and water conditions and document what happened. You can also return to the crash site later, and/or take photos of the damage to your boat and other boats involved. These snapshots will help support your personal injury claim. Step 4: Gather evidence and witness testimony. It’s important to document as much of the accident as possible. Some evidence (example: boat parts, maps) may sink below the surface or end up water damaged, but you should still salvage what you can. Professional divers can help you with this, and you can work with the Florida Coast Guard and local law enforcement to gather statements from anyone who may have seen the crash. Step 5: Call an experienced boat accident attorney. The best way to ensure your claim succeeds is by enlisting the help of an attorney like the ones on our team! We can help you with steps 3 and 4, and fight for the compensation you deserve if the other parties involved in the crash were negligent. Call us today at 1-833-529-6577 to get help.

Step 2: Seek medical help regardless of your injuries. Whether your injuries from the crash are major, minor, or
seemingly nonexistent, it’s vital that you see a doctor. Seeking
