Losing a child or loved one in a fatal swimming pool accident or seeing your loved one suffer a brain or spinal cord injury as the result of a pool accident is a devastating and traumatic experience.

It may also help prevent other tragic swimming pool deaths or brain and spinal cord injuries.

Do You Have a Valid Claim?

The time after a tragic accident can be confusing and overwhelming, but it is important to be aware of the legal options available to you and your family so that you can make the necessary decisions to protect your future. It is best to contact a Kansas City swimming pool accident lawyer as soon as possible so that you have the best opportunity to preserve the evidence.

Insurance company investigators will be working hard to protect their interests. It is important that you have a team who can preserve the evidence and fight for your rights. To have a successful injury or wrongful death claim after a swimming pool accident, it must be proven that negligence was the cause.

Common causes of injury or fatal swimming pool accidents that may point to negligence may include:

  • Defective drains or other pool components
  • Negligent or improper use of fences or locks
  • Improper supervision
  • Diving accidents
  • Violations of swimming pool manufacturing or design requirements
  • Insufficient or lack of warnings
  • Defective pool design
  • Lack of proper safety equipment

Depending on the circumstances of the accident, the pool owner, property manager, pool designer/manufacturer, or product manufacturer may be held responsible for the harm their negligence caused.
