Recreational Accidents

Wisconsin Snowmobile Accident Lawyer

Wisconsin, a natural outdoor playground, is also the site of tragic recreational accidents. The 2006/2007 season alone saw thirty-six fatal snowmobile accidents in the state, including the following:

  • A nine-year-old passenger on a snowmobile drowned in cold water when the sled went through the ice.
  • A borrowed snowmobile with a modified throttle lever accelerated rather than slowing when the driver attempted to brake, resulting in a fatal crash.
  • A snowmobile driver was crossing a highway when struck and killed by a semi-truck.
  • A snowmobile rolled over the operator and crushed him.
  • A snowmobile driver hit a barbed wire fence and was killed.
  • A man fell off his snowmobile and was killed when struck by another sled.
  • Two snowmobiles collided in a river channel and burned. One victim suffered severe head trauma and died; the second victim suffered serious back injuries.*

Causes of boat accidents, jet ski crashes, and dirt bike and ATV accidents

Wisconsin's rivers, lakes, and trails are annually the site of serious or fatal boating, water skiing, jet ski (personal watercraft/pwc), motorbike, and all-terrain vehicle accidents. Was the accident the result of defective equipment? Were you a passenger when a negligent driver caused your injuries? Your own insurance agent may not even know whether your policy, or that of the owner of the craft, covers losses in these recreational accidents. Attorney Eugene A. Gasiorkiewicz will help you identify responsible parties.

Dangerous children's toys and playground equipment

For children, defective or poorly maintained playground equipment and toys can be deadly or dangerous. When a child suffers a severe injury such as traumatic brain injury (TBI) or quadriplegia, it is extremely important to have an experienced accident injury lawyer evaluate the claim and see that it fully represents the extent of the family's loss.
