Preparing Your Boat or Watercraft Accident Case for​ Trial.

At Miller Injury Attorneys, we begin preparing for trial from the moment we accept your case. We may visit the scene of the accident, investigate damaged boats, interview witnesses and consult with marine experts. We also research applicable state and federal maritime laws.

While your boat or personal watercraft accident may settle before reaching the courtroom, we only advise our clients to accept a settlement when the amount is fair and adequate to cover your damages and injuries. If better results are likely to be achieved in the courtroom, we will not hesitate to present your case to a judge or jury.

Drownings, Near Drownings & Water-related Injuries.

A man suffering a near drowning accident getting medical helpIn addition to the Pacific Coastline, California is home to numerous lakes and rivers, including:

  • Folsom Lake
  • Lake Tahoe
  • The American River
  • The Sacramento River

Californians take advantage of their proximity to water. They participate in water skiing, swimming, boating and a wide variety of other water-related activities. And it’s not just natural bodies of water. Many Californians own pools or use private or community pools.

Unfortunately, with increased water use comes the increased risk of personal injury, including drownings. Many adults and children each year are killed in drownings or severely injured in near drownings. Even when a lifeguard is on duty, unsafe pool or beach conditions can be deadly.

    B. Candler

  • I was pleased with the end result.

    “In December 2019 a Lyft driver just could not wait for me to finish getting into the car and took off prematurely running over my left foot. I suffered tears to a couple of ligaments and tendons. After not receiving any return calls from Lyft I enlisted the help of Miller Injury Attorneys. Rebecca McMartin was the legal assistant who helped me every step of the way. She was always courteous and very professional. She was responsive to all of my questions and concerns and allayed any doubts I had. I was amazed that we were able to settle just after one year of the incident. I know personally injury claims can be extremely lengthy, but this was short and sweet and I was pleased with the end result. I highly recommend this firm and if you are fortunate to be able to work with Rebecca, you are in good hands.”
