Michigan Boating Accident Lawyers

Michigan is home to the largest coastline in the continental United States. With this gift, Michigan has one of the largest number of registered boat users in the country. Unfortunately, many people are injured in boating accidents in Michigan each year.

Boating accidents can occur in a variety of situations ranging from ocean-going commercial and cruise line vessels to small pleasure craft on our navigable waterways and lakes. For motor vehicle accidents, we often refer to the Rules of the Road to determine each person’s responsibilities in operating their vehicles in a safe manner. Similarly, there are rules established by the Coast Guard and various federal and state agencies that outline the rules for safe boating.

The Michigan boating accident lawyers at the Lee Steinberg Law Firm, P.C. have handled many Michigan boating accidents over the past 40 years. It has been our experience that some of the more common boating accidents involve:

  • Driving too fast
  • Drinking and driving
  • Not maintaining a proper lookout to watch for other boaters and collisions
