Swimming Pool AccidentsSwimming Pool Accidents can occur in public or private pools, hot tubs, or whirlpool spas.  Tragically, the victims of these swimming accidents are usually children and young teenagers.  However, acquatic accidents also affect adults, and are more likely to occur when alcohol plays a role. Thousands of children are injured and even die due to accidents around swimming pools every year, in accidents that are almost entirely preventable. Swimming Pool Accidents can be caused by a number of factors, including improper pool design and construction, improper pool maintenance, lack of fencing surrounding pool, lack of supervision or lifeguard, electrocution, diving into shallow water, slips and falls, or chemical exposure. Death, spinal cord injury, and permanent neurological damage are some of the most serious results of Swimming Pool Accidents. Swimming Pool Accident lawsuits may involve product liability, premises liability, or negligence. An accident related to a swimming pool injury or death can be quite complicated, and require the insight of a personal injury attorney experienced with swimming pool injuries and accidents.
