Swimming Pool Accidents Lawyers

While swimming pools provide countless hours of fun and entertainment, they can also pose serious dangers and lead to swimming pool accidents if they are not kept free of hazards.  According to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:

• In 2005, there were 3,582 fatal unintentional drownings in the United States, averaging ten deaths per day
• More than one in four fatal drowning victims are children 14 and younger
• Up to half of adolescent and adult deaths associated with water recreation are due to alcohol intoxication accidents

In most swimming pool accidents, lack of fencing, gates, and other barriers are the primary culprits. Other factors frequently include poor supervision, inexperience in swimming, not wearing life jackets and alcohol consumption.
