Mazzola Law Firm recently filed another PWC orifice injury lawsuit in Miami-Dade County, Florida on behalf of 27 year old Orlando resident, Yanais Acosta. Ms. Acosta sustained severe rectal and perineal injuries when she fell off the back of a Yamaha Waverunner and landed in the path of the blast of water emanating from the PWC’s jet thrust propulsion system.
She was immediately rushed by ambulance to a nearby emergency room where she received life-saving medical intervention, including the surgical implantation of a colostomy bag. The case, styled Acosta v. Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. et al, involved Yamaha’s 2015 FZS SVHO model and occurred just north of Bal Harbour, Florida at Haulover Beach Park.
