Portland Boating Accident Attorneys
Experienced Oregon Boat Accident Lawyers
A boating accident may occur on a personal watercraft, on a cruise ship or on a navy vessel. These accidents may also include water sports accidents, such as those involving Jet Skis. A serious boat accident may result in injury to the passengers on the boat as well as extensive property damage to the vessel itself. In some cases a boating accident may even result in the death of a passenger and/or the boat operator.
A Portland boating accident lawyer can help you if you have been injured or if you have lost a loved one due to a boat accident. Under Oregon law, you have a very limited time to report the accident. If someone is injured, you must report the accident within 48 hours. By ensuring that you have proper legal representation as soon as possible, you will be ready to bring a claim against the responsible party in order to collect maximum compensation for your injuries and the damages you have suffered.
Even if your injuries seem minor and you do not think that you need medical treatment, it is still advisable to consult a physician as soon as possible. It may be that you have an injury that will present itself at a later date, and it is better to get it treated immediately before it becomes a bigger problem. The same goes for legal representation, as an attorney’s early involvement will make all the difference in the outcome of your claim. At our firm, our attorneys handle all types of boating accident claims and cases throughout Portland and the surrounding areas in Oregon. This includes slip and fall accidents that occur on boats, boat collisions, cruise ship accidents, drowning accidents, Jet Ski accidents and much more.
