Internal Organ Injuries

INTERNAL ORGAN INJURIES

If you have ever been on a personal watercraft, you recognize the thrill that comes with speeding through the waves and picking up wind. The summer is a perfect time to take watercraft out on the water, but the popular season does not come without risks. The prevalence of watercraft accidents has a lot to do with the number of people in the water at the time of the accident, as well as the overall demeanor of the watercraft operator. If you or a loved one have suffered internal organ injuries after a watercraft accident, you may be entitled to receive compensation for your injuries.

WATERCRAFT ACCIDENTS

Watercraft accidents can unfortunately occur at any time to any person enjoying their time on the lake or river. Watercraft accidents are frequently the cause of the following:

  • Distracted watercraft operator
  • Inexperienced watercraft operator
  • Boating under the influence
  • Watercraft product defects

Watercraft accidents often result in internal organ injuries to passengers since watercraft offer little to no protection from outside forces. Blunt force trauma and penetrating trauma are the leading causes of internal organ injuries. Personal watercraft accidents especially lead to serious injuries since personal watercraft travel at high rates of speeds and therefore can collide with another watercraft or stationary object, causing blunt force trauma or penetrating trauma.

INTERNAL ORGAN INJURIES

Internal organ injuries refer to any injury that occurs inside the body and is often damaging to organs. These injuries can include punctured lung, perforated colon, internal bleeding, or ruptured spleen. Internal organ injuries can occur from personal watercraft accidents through collisions or also through the jet thrust accidents and accidents involving the high-pressured jet stream. Any of these accidents can lead to longlasting injuries to the victim, requiring months or years of medical and rehabilitative care.

As the victim of a watercraft accident, you may be eligible to receive the following types of compensation for your injuries:

  • Medical expenses
  • Rehabilitation expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Future earnings
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of consortium

It is important to discuss the facts of your case with an experienced watercraft accident attorney who can determine the responsible party for your injuries. This may be the watercraft operator or the watercraft manufacturer, but an attorney can assist you in collecting the appropriate information to file your claim for damages.
