"Jackson & Wilson
came highly recommended to us from a Superior Court Judge who is a good
friend of ours. We were pleased with both the high level of
professionalism and the constant concern for our best interest. We were
always kept well informed of the status of our case. We feel highly
confident in referring Jackson & Wilson to others."

through one of the most difficult time of my life. You were all so
gracious about any questions I had. The speed with which you brought my
legal case to a fair and fast conclusion was so appreciated and I am

According to the U.S. Coast Guard, there are nearly 12 million registered boats in the United States, with 95 percent of them being less than 26 feet in length. California has about one million registered recreational vessels. Collisions with other boats, or other type of water craft, is the most common cause of injury or death in boating accidents. Other causes of injury are slip and falls, reckless driving, drunk driving, boat malfunctions and inexperienced water craft operators. It is a general rule of law that the owner and operator of a boat have a duty to exercise the highest degree of care in order to prevent injuries and death to others. These same boats account for as many as
80 percent of the underwater impact injuries in which people in the
water are struck by a boat or its propeller. The majority of these
accidents are the result of operator error, making them one of the most
preventable of all types of boating accidents. While boat or propeller
strike accidents are relatively few in number, as compared to other
types of boating accidents, some of them are severe and have tragic
consequences... Many boating case involve complicated areas of law ranging from diversity jurisdiction to state and federal conflict of law issues. Having experienced counsel represent your legal interest is a must. Every year, the U.S. Coast Guard compiles statistics on reported recreational boating accidents. These statistics are derived from accident reports that are filed by the owners / operators of recreational vessels involved in accidents. The fifty states, five U.S. territories and the District of Columbia submit accident report data to the Coast Guard for inclusion in the annual Boating Statistics publication. Search Our Web Site
