Vacation should be a time for rest, relaxation, and restoration - as well as a lot of fun, especially when your destination is Hawaii. Hawaii has a lot of different recreational activities to offer - from snorkeling, shark dives, scootering, hiking, helicopter tours, ATV rides, surfing, and fishing. The islands also offer a great place to drive and walk to take in its breathtaking scenery. However, all of these activities carry certain risks. In turn, vacation injuries in Hawaii aren’t all that uncommon. 

In fact, statistics seem to indicate that many vacation injuries are actually on the rise as tourism grows.

You should not have to struggle with the costs and consequences of a vacation injury on your own. Many times, vacation injuries are, at least in part, due to someone else’s negligent or careless actions. In these situations, you’ll have the right to take legal action and hold them accountable for the costs of your medical care, disability, lost wages, and the harder-to-value pain and suffering you’ve experienced.
