Jet Ski Accidents Lawyer

Jet ski accidents can result in catastrophic personal injuries given the exposure of the rider without any walls or a hull to protect them. Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and broken bones are common jet ski accident injuries. While some of these injuries may appear to be due to the rider’s fault, this is often not true. Owners and operators are responsible for maintaining their jet ski in good working condition. When they cut corners by making their own repairs or failing to make any repairs, it could result in malfunctions which could cause a jet ski to flip over, have a steering failure, or be unable to stop. Insurance companies know how devastating the injuries in a jet ski accident could be and will do everything they can to blame victims for their injuries when a jet ski malfunctions. But that is not fair.

At Schlacter Law, we know that jet ski accidents could result in catastrophic personal injuries such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, or broken bones. We also know how insurance companies will try to spin your jet ski accident to be your fault, even if it malfunctions.

If you are injured in a jet ski accident, you need a law firm like Schlacter Law on your side. Not only is this because jet ski accidents are more complicated than other types of personal injury cases, but they are usually hotly contested. This is because most owners, operators, and insurance companies will blame a jet ski rider for his or her injuries. Given that there are state, federal, and even possibly international maritime law that could apply, many defendants think they can trick jet ski riders into accepting less money than they deserve.

Our lawyers understand liability issues surrounding jet ski accidents. We will navigate you through the complicated claims process to ensure that your rights to compensation are protected. This includes hiring industry-leading experts who know how jet skis are supposed to be maintained and who can recreate an accident.

Victims of a jet ski accident could be seriously harmed or catastrophically injured because their body is exposed similarly to a motorcycle rider or bicyclists. This means there are no airbags, seatbelts, or even the walls of a vessel to protect a rider from impact with any other object, another vessel, or even just the water at high speed. Some of the common types of jet ski injuries we handle include the following:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
• Spinal cord injuries (SCIs)
• Amputations
• Fractured bones, including compound fractures
• Burns from explosions or fires on jet skis
• Head injuries
• Organ damage
• Nerve injuries, including brachial plexus or facial nerve injuries
• Torn muscles or tendons
• Disc herniation in the back
• Neck or back injuries
• Any other injury from a jet ski accident

Here at Schlacter Law, we do not charge victims of jet ski accidents any money upfront to start handling their case. Victims of jet ski accidents will only pay once we recover compensation for them in a settlement or award. It is important to get a jet ski accident lawyer because there is a confusing combination of state, federal, and international maritime law that owners and their insurance companies may try to hide behind. Don’t let this happen.
