Frequently Asked Questions About Boat Accidents in New York

Boating accidents on New York waterways can occur for several reasons. The most common causes include operator negligence, speeding, intoxication, and mechanical failure. Whether you’re boating on the Long Island Sound, Great South Bay, or the Atlantic Ocean, accidents can happen when operators fail to follow safety regulations, pay attention to their surroundings, or operate their vessels responsibly.

Yes, if you’ve been injured in a boat accident caused by another party’s negligence, you have the right to pursue compensation. This compensation may cover medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other financial damages.

At TonaLaw, our experienced New York boating accident lawyers will fight to ensure that you receive full and fair compensation for your injuries.

Immediately after a boating accident, your health and safety are the top priority. Here are the steps you should take:

1.  Seek medical attention: Even if you feel fine, it’s essential to get checked by a medical professional. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent.

2. Report the accident: Boating accidents in New York must be reported to the proper authorities, such as the U.S. Coast Guard or local marine law enforcement.

3. Gather evidence: If possible, take pictures of the accident scene, your injuries, and any property damage. Get contact information from witnesses and other parties involved.

4. Contact a lawyer: Speak with a qualified New York boat accident lawyer to understand your legal rights and begin the process of pursuing compensation.

  • Collisions between boats or other watercraft
  • Capsizing accidents due to negligent operation

  • Water inhalation or hypothermia
  • Paralysis or amputation
