Oregon Personal Injury Attorney
Boating Accidents
Oregon boating accidents can be dangerous and even deadly.
Every year Oregon recreational boaters and commercial fisherman suffer serious injuries in Oregon boating accidents. Proving who is at fault in an Oregon boating accident is not as easy or as obvious as a car accident.
There are a number of safe boating rules that if not followed can result in boating accidents and injuries. Unfortunately, many Oregon boaters do not follow the rules or even know about the rules.
In order to prove a boating accident case, you will need boating experts. I know some excellent professional captains and former Coast Guard captains who I consult with on Oregon boating injury cases. I am also very familiar with boating rules and boating safety.
Over the course of my life, I have spent hundreds of days on the water operating everything from driftboats to large fishing and pleasure boats. As someone who spends 20-30 days a year piloting a boat, I have special insight on what is and is not safe on the water.
In addition to piloting boats for pleasure, I am also a sponsor and participant in the Oregon Food Bank’s Oregon Tuna Classic. It is great to get out on the water for a good cause.
If you have been hurt in boating or fishing accident, having an Oregon attorney who knows his way around a boat can make all the difference. If you have been hurt in a boating accident, give me a call so I can discuss your rights and options with you.
