Accidents at Sea

Honolulu Boating Accidents Lawyer

Hawaii Boating Accidents Attorney

People receive serious injuries from accidents at sea in a variety of circumstances. Some are seamen injured on the job, while others are injured as passengers on whale-watching cruises. You may have been injured in a boat crash due to pilot error or lost a loved one in a drowning accident. Depending on where the injury occurred, your case may be governed under a special branch of law called admiralty law. Other injuries fall under personal injury law.

If you or a loved one have been injured in boating accidents, or have lost a family member in a fatal accident at sea, contact a wrongful death attorney at Trecker & Fritz in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our attorneys have been helping victims of boating accidents recover compensation for their losses for more than 30 years.

Experienced Maritime Injury Attorneys · Call us at 866.457.2861

Because we are based in Hawaii, we have experience in handling boating accidents governed under maritime law and ocean/pool injuries. We also practice extensively in personal injury law, and are skilled in pursuing compensation against a cruise ship line or a tour boat operator. Many boating accidents happen in coastal waters, including water skiing accidents, Jet Ski accidents and kite surfing, and parasailing injuries. The firm has handled numerous catastrophic water and beach injuries.

We provide learned counsel to victims of beach and swimming pool accidents, as well, and do our best to help every client recover compensation for the following:

  • Lost work time
  • Medical expenses
  • Pain and suffering

Many clients have come to us when they have lost a loved one in the high seas in a drowning, cruise ship accident or workplace accident.

We investigate boating and water accidents thoroughly, gathering evidence such as the accident report and interviewing witnesses. In order to gain compensation, we must prove that someone was negligent, and that their actions (or lack of action) caused or contributed to the accident.

"After the accident, I was overwhelmed and difficult to deal with. Mr Fritz was really a fighter with the insurance company but at the same time patient with me. After my recovery, I was able to get my life back together."

"The car I was riding in got broadsided and I was badly hurt. At the time of the accident, I was making great money as a mechanic After the surgery, I couldn't do the lifting.
