NJ Boat Accident Attorneys

Boat Accident Lawyers Serving the Jersey Shore

Approximately 30% of Ocean and Monmouth County is made up of water.  The Jersey Shore has been described as a boater's paradise for the northeast region.  New Jersey currently has over 170,000 registered boats along the state's coastline of over 130 miles.  Some of the Jersey Shore's most popular waterways include: Raritan Bay, Navesink River, Shrewsbury River, Manasquan River, Barnegat Bay, Metedeconk River, Toms River and Bass River.

Jersey Shore Lawyers with Boating Experience

The NJ Boat Accident Attorneys at Villani & DeLuca are boating operators and therefore have a unique understanding of how handling a boat requires a specific knowledge of maritime rules and procedures.  They are also intimately familiar with how boating accidents often occur.  The majority of boating accidents are a result of operator error.  Often the operator is inexperienced, not paying attention, traveling too fast or has consumed too much alcohol.  In the event that you were charged with DWI for boating while intoxicated in New Jersey, our DWI attorneys can help!
