Causes of Swimming Pool Accidents
Swimming pool accidents often occur due to property owner negligence. Residential and commercial property owners have a duty to take proper precautions to prevent accidents on their property.
Many drowning accidents occur when children gain access to a pool at a time in which they are not being monitored. Inadequate fencing and broken gate latches create an unacceptable risk of harm to young children. Property owners can and should take appropriate actions to prevent children from gaining access to their pool without proper supervision.
If you feel that a property owner’s negligence may have contributed to a swimming pool accident that has caused serious injury or death, it is critical that you speak with an experienced personal injury attorney.
