Boat Fire Accident Attorney
There are may reasons that a boat can catch on fire, and all reasons can lead to a serious personal injury for anyone on or near that boat. A boat does not have to be inherently dangerous, but if the captain of the boat is incompetent, then there will be accidents and injuries to guests and passengers who go onto the boat before and after it is let out into the open waters. If you have been in a boat fire, you will want to call us immediately at the DTLA Law Group to review your claim with our legal team. Boats can catch on fire for several reasons, including:
- Marina hazardous materials stored too near a boat dock
- Having a bonfire near to a boat
- Not inspecting wiring harnesses and starters on the boat
- Not replacing 25 year or older wire on a boat
- Not checking worn batteries on a boat
- Not fixing errors in connections and wiring on the boat
- Not managing voltage regulators
- Using old and frayed wires with older appliances
- Overheating blocked water intake
- Impeller failures from sediment
- Not grounding outlets on the boat
- Allowing smoking on the boat

If you are injured in a fire, you may have suffered serious burn injuries. A burn injury can be measured in degrees, such as:1
- First degree/superficial thickness injuries are painful, but do not scar or blister.
- Second degree/intermediate thickness injuries blister and are painful and may require surgery.
- Third degree/Full thickness injuries are dry and may need grafting, with a high risk of infection.
- Fourth degree/bone injuries are complex and may lead to loss of muscle or bone from the burn injury.
We understand that you may still be under a doctor’s care when you call us to review your claim. That is fine, we can talk to you even if you are not quite released from your doctor for your burn injuries. But the sooner you start your claim the better, as you will want to start your claim before the law runs out on being able to initiate a lawsuit against the at-fault parties for your loss.
