To win your boating accident case in Nevada, you must prove that the accident occurred because of the negligent, reckless, or intentional misconduct of another person. Negligence means carelessness. The person responsible for the accident may be the operator of your boat, the operator of another boat, another person in the boat or even a person who isn’t in a boat at all. You need to investigate your case to determine who is responsible for the accident.
To win a boat accident case in Nevada, you show how the person responsible for the accident breached their duty of safety. You must show that the breach of duty is the cause of the accident. Finally, you must prove what your damages are. Although it might seem daunting, an experienced attorney can gather the information that you need to make your case. When you work diligently and purposefully, you can successfully bring a claim to win the compensation that you deserve for your boating accident.
Most boating accidents are preventable accidents caused by operator inexperience or inattention. Statistically, 84 percent of all boating fatalities occur on boats where the operator has not completed a boating safety education course. The primary causes of accidents include careless operation, inexperience, and operating at unsafe speeds. These common causes are also prevalent on local bodies of water like Lake Mead.
Being involved in a boating accident can be very frightening and confusing. The steps that you take when the accident occurs will impact everything from your safety to your right to seek compensation for damages. It is important to try and follow these steps when you are involved in a boating accident.
It is also very important for you to seek legal representation before speaking with the insurance provider of the at-fault party. Many insurance companies want to be very quick with a settlement offer so that they can close the case. These quick settlements, however, often do not cover all of the true losses that the injured party endured. Speaking with an attorney will protect your rights as a victim.
