Answer:

Recently, one of our clients asked the question, “What are some common mistakes made when dealing with boating accidents in Orlando?” We told him that typically we will see individuals involved in a serious accident immediately reach out and contact the insurance company on their own and give a recorded statement. What these individuals don’t understand is that an insurance company is there to protect their insured; they’re not there to help the injured person. It is extremely important to avoid giving such statements.

Another common mistake that we see people make is trying to handle these issues on their own, which results in them obtaining less value for their case. It is extremely important to hire a knowledgeable, well-trained attorney to help you when you’ve been injured in a boating accident. If you’ve been injured in a boating accident, please contact us. We’d be happy to help you in any way that we can.
