Boating Accidents: Frequently Asked Questions
What Should I Do If I'm in a Fatal Car Accident Right Away?
Your health should always be your top priority. Get the medical help you require as soon as possible. Make sure that everything is documented in writing by medical professionals, and that you tell them about anything that seems out of the ordinary. You should hire an expert attorney as soon as possible after receiving necessary medical treatment, as this will give you the best opportunity of getting full and fair compensation for your injuries and losses. The longer you wait, the more likely it is that evidence will be lost or tampered with, witnesses may die or move away, or their memories will fade.
Gather as much information as possible about the accident's cause, car or person damage, weather conditions, and other factors. Take photos of everything; your phone's camera will suffice.
Obtain contact information from all parties involved in the collision, as well as any witnesses.

Horseplay or dangerous boating—not It's uncommon for boaters to go at high speeds or take risks while at the helm.
