── Types of Boating Accidents in South Carolina

Many different types of boating accidents occur in South Carolina each year, including:

Collisions
Capsizing
DUI

Fire
Falling overboard

Boat operators have a duty of care while operating their vessels. They must abide by local laws, including speed limits, and consider the safety of all those onboard and in the water nearby. If they breach their duty of care, then the boat operator can get held responsible for any property damage, injuries, or death that occurs.

── Why Hire a Boating Accident Attorney for Your Case

Oftentimes, it’s difficult to prove fault in boating accident cases, especially if you don’t seek help from an experienced South Carolina lawyer. You need to present evidence showing that the boat operator was acting recklessly or otherwise negligent while piloting the vessel.

Plus, you need to show that you suffered damages due to their actions, resulting in the need for the law to make you whole again. By hiring a lawyer, you can effectively move through those steps and get justice after a boating accident occurs.

Your Spartanburg boating accident lawyer from Kyle J. White Law Firm will help you:

Explore Solutions

Although it might not feel like it at the moment, you have options on how to handle the situation after a boating accident occurs. You can directly take the boat operator to court, go through mediation sessions, or even try to negotiate a settlement with their insurance company. A skilled attorney from Kyle J. White Law Firm can look at all the circumstances of your case to help you explore all the options available to you.

Recover Damages

A boating accident attorney in Anderson, SC from Kyle J. White Law Firm can help you recover all the losses that occurred due to a boating accident, such as:

Existing and future medical expenses
Lost wages while recuperating
Pain and suffering

Beyond that, if your injuries leave you unable to work the same job, then your lawyer will fight to recoup the difference in pay between your old and new positions. If you’re unable to work at all, you’ll need help getting compensation for the permanent disability or disfigurement instead.

According to Code §15-3-530 in South Carolina, you only have three years to file a claim against the party responsible for your boating accident. So, if you wait too long, you could miss your chance to recover your losses and hold them responsible.
