Chandler Boating Accident Lawyers

When it comes to boating, Arizona is probably not at the top of Anyone’s list. But even though Arizona may be land-locked, we still have a good share of rivers and lakes. Therefore, we also have our share of boating accidents in Arizona. Boating accidents can be serious and even fatal in some cases. Operators of boats usually tend to be less aware of their surroundings and may also be impaired by alcohol while operating their boat. Many people are familiar with the term DUI, as Driving Under the Influence. But there is also a term for operating a watercraft in Arizona while under the influence, it’s known as OUI.

There is no doubt that alcohol can be a large factor in boating accidents, but it is not the only factor.

Other factors may include:

  • Operator inexperience.
  • Careless driving.
  • Reckless driving.
  • Distracted driving.
  • Not obeying posted boating signs.

According to Coast Guard data there were 210 boating accidents in Arizona that resulted in 10 fatalities in 2020. Although these figures may not seem that high, boating accidents were up over 100% from the previous year of 96 accidents in Arizona. This is because most people do not recognize the dangers involved while boating. But the same care and attention that is given to operating a motor vehicle on our Arizona highways should be given to operating a water vessel on our waterways as well.

Unfortunately, careless, and irresponsible boaters are just as much of a problem as careless and irresponsible drivers. In addition to a boat striking another boat on the water, there are many other types of water accidents that may occur such as encountering swimmers, water skiers or jet skiers. These accidents could result in serious injuries and even drownings.

The costs associated with boating accidents can be overwhelming and may include:

  • High medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Rehabilitation
  • Therapy
  • Emotional trauma

Boating accident claims can be a complicated process due to state, federal, and international regulations regarding maritime laws. If you or a loved one has suffered injuries due to someone else’s negligence on the water, you should consult with an experienced boat accident attorney to get the compensation you deserve.

After researching events of refused coverage by USCCA (I should have read the fine print to begin with), who obviously has decided they're judge and jury, and want's you to pay them back if you loose your case, I dumped them and happy to be here instead. People please beware of USCCA.
Response from the owner:We love the effort you put into researching your options and are honored that you have chosen Attorneys On Retainer as the better option for your needs. Our team is committed to providing reliable and trustworthy services to our members, and we are pleased to hear we have earned your confidence and trust.

A small group of us recently signed up for a group membership with Attorneys on Retainer, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. James Belcher was incredibly helpful—he walked us through the process, answered every question, and got us a fantastic group rate. His support made everything smooth and stress-free.

AOR stands out in a big way. As individuals choosing to exercise our Second Amendment rights and look out for one another, it’s crucial to have real legal protection—especially in more tyrannical states like New Jersey. One of the biggest selling points for us was that AOR now includes coverage for red flag laws, which is a huge deal here.

The peace of mind that comes with being able to call an attorney directly, without worrying about exclusions or fine print, is invaluable. AOR doesn’t make you jump through hoops or hope your case is “perfect” enough for coverage. They’re straightforward, committed, and reliable.

If you’re a gun owner—especially in a state where the laws seem designed to trip you up—get this coverage. You won’t find anything else like it.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the thoughtful and detailed review, Vicky! We're honored that you and your group chose Attorneys On Retainer, and we're thrilled to hear that James provided a smooth, stress-free experience from start to finish. If you ever need anything or have questions down the road, we're just a call away. Thank you again for your trust and support!
