South Bay Swimming Pool Accident Lawyers
Swimming accidents claim the lives of over 1,000 children each year and accidents in swimming pools account for over 1/3 of the fatalities. Thousands of adults will also die or suffer catastrophic personal injury as a result of swimming mishaps this year.
Owners of private "backyard" pools have a responsibility to provide a safe environment for children and adults alike and need to focus on accident prevention.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a private or public pool, you may be able to file a claim for damages against the owner/operator of the pool if you can prove the following:
- Negligence - the owner failed to provide a safe environment;
- Causation - The owner's negligence caused the accident;
- Damages - You suffered damages as a result of the accident.
Always consult an experienced South Bay swimming accident attorney or wrongful death lawyer before you file a claim for damages.
It's your right.
