The sunshine state upholds an outstanding reputation for its beautiful beaches, laid back atmosphere and countless recreational activities. Among those interests, boating remains one of the most favored pastimes between locals and visitors to Delray Beach.
Unfortunately, an injury in a boating accident caused by another party’s negligence is not uncommon in Florida. Operator inattention, excessive speeding, operator inexperience and machinery failure are all leading contributors to the number of boat and jet ski accidents each year.
If you or a loved one suffered injuries and/or loss of life from a motor boat accident after a day at sea, it’s time to discuss your legal options with a knowledgeable boat accident lawyer. Contact our team today to learn about the process of filing a boat accident claim.
Wrongful Death Boat Accidents: Negligence of any kind can lead to a wrongful death lawsuit in Florida. Boating under the influence of alcohol/drugs and excessive speeding tend to be the main causes of wrongful death boat accidents.
Many things can transpire in the moments following a boat accident. However, the first thing you should do is evaluate whether you or anyone else involved in the boating accident requires immediate medical attention or first aid assistance.
Operator inattention, excessive speed, operator inexperience and machinery failure are the most common causes of boat and jet ski accidents in Delray Beach.
Passengers on board with an inexperienced operator are the most susceptible victims of boating accidents. In fact, the U.S. Coast Guard reports nearly 77 percent of deaths occurred on vessels where the operator had not received proper safety instructions.
Florida law requires a written report within 48 hours to state authorities when a boating accident occurs. If the boating accident resulted in bodily injury beyond first aid, one or more deaths and/or missing persons, authorities must be informed immediately.
Any property damage above $2,000 or more requires mandatory reporting under Florida boating regulations. Though the extent of damage may vary, the threshold amount must include any destruction to the boat, nearby structures, and personal property around and/or on the vessel.

If you’re injured in an accident, your first priority should be your health. Seek medical attention right away, even if you feel okay at first. Document the accident scene, collect contact information from others involved or witnesses, and report the incident to the appropriate authorities or property owner. It can also help to speak with a personal injury lawyer early to protect your rights.
To have a potential personal injury case, there generally must be: (1) someone else’s negligence, (2) an injury, and (3) a direct connection between the negligence and your injury. A lawyer can help review the facts of your situation and explain whether you may have a valid claim.
No. Porcaro Law Group offers a free consultation so you can discuss your accident and legal options with us at no cost or obligation.
Most personal injury lawyers, including Porcaro LawGroup, work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay attorney’s fees unless your case results in a recovery.
Florida has time limits, called statutes of limitations, that apply to personal injury cases. In most cases, you have TWO YEARS from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. It’s important to act early, so you don’t miss the deadline.
