Boating accidents can be a complicated area of personal injury law, because they may relate to either maritime law or negligence law, depending on the circumstances of the accident. Furthermore, there are many factors that present a danger to boaters and those enjoying water recreation. Many states allow individuals as young as 12 to operate boats, and many adult boaters will operate the vehicle under the influence of alcohol. Therefore, it is important to seek an attorney experienced in both of these practice areas to be sure that your rights are protected in your case.

When you do seek proper representation near Gaithersburg or Rockville, you will have an advocate to explore the details of your case, determine appropriate compensation, and decide who may be at fault. Possible defendants in your case may include the boat owner, operator, or manufacturer. If the operator of the boat leaves the scene of the accident, there may also be felony charges involved for the defendant in your case.
