Toronto Snowmobile, ATV and Boat Accident Lawyer

Accidents Involving Off-Road Vehicles

Every winter someone in Ontario is seriously injured or killed in a snowmobile accident. In the summertime, boats and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) pose a similar risk of injury and death.

I am personal injury lawyer Donald L. Granatstein, Q.C., LL.M., and I assist those injured in accidents involving off-road vehicles and boats. If you have suffered a serious permanent injury or if a family member died a wrongful death in such an accident, please contact me to discuss your legal concerns.

I will evaluate your case and determine whether you are eligible to recover financial compensation.

Questions About the Property

Determining the negligence of a property owner in a snowmobile or ATV accident can be complicated. The injured party must prove that:

A dangerous condition on the property caused the accident that injured you.
The property owner knew about the condition, but did nothing to fix it.
The property owner invited you onto the property or knew that you were using it for snowmobiling.

I achieved positive results in a recent case for survivors of a snowmobiler who has been decapitated by a cable the land owner had strung across the entrance to the property. Witnesses testified that the property owner knew snowmobilers used his land. I established that he could see and hear the snowmobiles from his office.

About Boating Accidents

Boating accidents often involve people who operate a boat while intoxicated, who are inexperienced boaters, or who fail to take proper safety precautions. I represent people who were injured by private boat owners. I also pursue claims against the bars or taverns that may have over-served a patron who then harmed another person.
