San Diego Swimming Pool Accident Lawyer

With our city’s often pleasant weather, it is no surprise that many San Diego homes, apartment buildings and hotels have swimming pools. Unfortunately, the presence of swimming pools and Jacuzzis increases the risk of injury to both adults and children.

It is important to immediately contact an attorney if you or your child has suffered injury as the result of a swimming pool accident. You may have the right to compensation for medical care, therapy, lost earnings and various other losses or expenses associated with the accident, and a San Diego personal injury lawyer can assist you in seeking the fair and complete compensation you deserve.

What causes swimming pool accidents?

A swimming pool accident may be attributed to negligent supervision, poor pool or pool area maintenance or defective products. The first typically relates to cases involving children who were not properly supervised when playing in or around a pool. It may also apply to lifeguards at public pools who fail to protect the safety of swimmers, whether adults or children. Poor pool or pool area maintenance may refer to a lack of proper fencing around a pool or slippery pavement beside a pool that causes a person to slip and fall. Finally, defective pump, drain or filtration systems in a pool or Jacuzzi may cause catastrophic injury or even wrongful death if a child or adult is caught in an underwater pump or drain.
