Re: boat owner
It's a tough one.
The reason is that if the broken parts were rusted or unable to be removed without breaking, then he is not liable. It will be very hard to prove either way. Unless you can provide an expert witness that the legal forum you choose accepts, and such witness can provide a reasonable explanation that the parts should have never broken, then you may have a chance. Usually expert testimony will cost you but such cost may be recoverable IF you win the case… Good Luck |
