Boat Accident Attorney In Fort Lauderdale: Compensation For Damages

When an inexperienced boat operator is on the water, everyone is at risk. Combine inexperience with alcohol consumption and you have a recipe for disaster. These boating accidents are particularly dangerous, since many times the victim will be thrown from the boat itself and be sent underwater, often unconscious and unable to act.

Without oxygen to the brain, the likelihood of brain damage skyrockets. When a person is submerged underwater for too long, brain damage can occur. When there is an absence of oxygen to the brain, even just a minute underwater can be devastating. This can lead to permanent and life-altering injuries. Boating accidents can change your life in an instant and it is important to seek justice if a negligent driver caused an accident that left you injured.
