The law controlling the outcome of boating accident cases typically is different from motor vehicle or premises accident law. Even very good non-,maritime personal injury attorneys may not understand how best to represent the injured passenger or bereaved survivor.  Maritime law has different legal theories on to how to hold the negligent person responsible and which sort of monetary compensation damages to claim. The deadline (statute of limitation) to make a claim  is different for other injury claims often. California’s approach to controlling vessels upon its waters combine both unique laws with laws that track the Federal Code of Regulation’s  Inland Navigation Rules (33 CFR Subchapter E).
