How do I know who caused the accident?
If you weren’t near the boat driving or watching what they were doing at the time of the accident, it can be difficult to figure out who was really at-fault. By working with a lawyer, they can actually help you with investigating who was responsible, and then providing advice on how to seek compensation from them if you were injured. The owner of the boat could be held liable for the injuries of passengers if they failed to properly maintain the boat and/or fix known issues.
