Enjoying a beautiful day relaxing on a boat or riding the waves on a WaveRunner in Summerville and North Charleston can be a fun experience. However, boating and jet ski accidents can happen anytime without warning.

Common Causes of Boating and Jet Ski Accidents
Common causes of boating and jet ski accidents can include excessive speed, inclement weather conditions, mechanical defects and inexperience or distraction of the operator.

Many accidents involve an operator who has failed to take a safety course before operating a WaveRunner, jet ski or boat.

Kebra MikellCFJ Injury Lawyers was excellent in their representation of my case. The entire staff was excellent…patient, polite, and understanding of my circumstances. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, as I was made to feel I was the first priority. Thank you all!
Patricia SullivanFirst! Best! Highly Recommend!
This is my first experience being in an auto accident and I’m very happy that I chose CFJ Injury Lawyers. I felt the warmth of the atmosphere and clearly the concern of the entire staff. I met with Attorney Cathy and paralegal Quella. I was so impressed with both their concerns for me and their professionalism. I felt so sure that they would have my best interests in mind, and they sure do! Weeks and months by, but they kept me informed and answered all my calls in a timely manner throughout the entire process. I will honestly recommend CFJ Injury Lawyers to anyone and everyone who wants and needs an honest caring law firm for all their needs. And a big thumbs up to Attorney Eric for putting up with and listening to my many frustrating ways. He’s a real gem.
!!! 10 out of 10!!! !!! Highly recommend!!!
Tommy GrahamI was having a horrible experience with Workers Comp until I talked with Eric. He explained my rights and addressed all of my concerns. Eric made sure I was getting what I needed for almost 2 years and then made sure I was compensated accordingly. I would definitely recommend him for any injury claim you may be going through. Thank you Eric and your team, we appreciate everything you guys did!
Erika VidorAfter a pretty bad car accident I was pretty clueless as to how to proceed. Eric took care of everything, always gave me the time and education I needed for every little concern and question, and procured for me a great settlement. Very grateful for the recommendation I got to turn to them in my time of need!
Nicole WilliamsonVery friendly atmosphere. Very knowledgeable. Highly recommended!
Faith CenobioThey really took care of me when I was hurt on the job and recovering from my injury.
James JerrelsI feel very blessed to have found CFJ attorneys. From the first meeting and throughout the entire process I felt important to them. Lisa was very attentive with her dedication and communication with me. Not only would I use them in the future. I will highly recommend them to everyone I know.
Jaimie CatoeCFJ Injury Lawyers and their team are great! Cathy and Lisa are who I spoke with the most. They took care of me and were so understanding of my crazy work schedule and took that into consideration when contacting me! I couldn't have asked for a better team to handle my case.
Debbie KelcyMy husband and I have used Wern Law for over 25 years. So when we needed an attorney in 2018 we did not hesitate. Catherine has always handled our cases, and since the firm has "changed hands" from Richard to Catherine, she has gotten a few new associates in the group and hasn't missed a beat. If we ever need to have representation again, this is the only law firm we will use. If you need an attorney for other issues that they do not specialize in, rest assured they will give you excellent advice and good direction. I won't go on blast for the dirty underhanded attorneys and the likes who played games with clients as well as Richard and Catherine. So, if you happen to run across one of them that bad mouth CFI or their staff, run... CFI is very fair and ALWAYS have your best interest at heart. This firm are not ambulance chasers. They rely on word of mouth for advertising.
Rodney MandervilleRichard and his firm/Family have "Always" been there for me and my family as well as those I've referred to his Council. Through good times as well as tough times for literally 20 years. He has always delivered and even more so has become a Great Friend. The information may not always be what you desire to hear but you can be assured that they will be professional and tactful they insure that you are never caught off guard and, that you are thoroughly prepared and informed for any and all matters that may arise throughout your case. In a word "OUTSTANDING"!
Tiffany MillerVery professional staff, knows everyone's name no matter if you've been there only once! You get more than just an attorney; you get a support system and a friend (the type of friend if you're down in the trenches, he's there with you strategizing a way out). You really know that Richard is handling your case as best he can without question. I have used several different law firms in the past and I would recommend this law firm, seeing first-hand the length he goes to for his clients. He also has spanish speaking staff, I would highly recommend Nicole!!!
Larry ConnerI met Richard through my daughter. I fell 8 feet in February 2011 and broke the L2 vertebra in my back!! Over a period of two years, I realized I was going to need help. I came to meet with Richard to talk about my accident. It was the best thing I ever did! My case went on for a little over 3 years and I am very pleased with the outcome Richard helped me obtain. He is an excellent attorney!
Kishawna BonaparteOur experience with Richard Wern Lawyers was exceptional and phenomenal. Every one there was extremely caring and attentive to our each and every single need and want from the friendly receptionist to the Paralegal and Lawyer himself, Mr. Richard Wern, Esq. Whenever a problem arose, his staff was fully prepared to handle whatever the issue was very prompt and tactfully. I would HIGHLY recommend Richard Wern Lawyers to my friends and family for their workers comp. or personal injury needs. Richard Wern Lawyers is rated top 5 in my book. Thanks for everything, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest (Kashawna) Googe
