We bring more than 20 years of experience to cases involving swimming accidents of all types in above-ground and below-ground pools.
Fencing Is a Critical Safety Feature
Backyard swimming pools are what is referred to as an attractive nuisance. Children see pools and they want to swim. For that reason, property owners should take measures to prevent neighborhood children from accessing the pool. The easiest way to do this is to install fencing around the backyard or around the pool itself.
If a property owner fails to take the necessary measures to keep children away from the attractive nuisance, the result could be a drowning accident, a slip-and-fall accident or a diving accident that results in spinal cord injuries or other catastrophic injuries. The property owner should be held responsible for these serious injuries.
