Pool Accidents & Drownings

accidental drowning law firm lawyer

Personal Injury Lawyer for Pool Accident & Drowning Victims in Dallas and throughout Texas

Poolside and other swimming related accidents are the second leading cause of death of children under 14 years of age. From drownings to accidents involving poolside apparatuses such as diving boards or maintenance equipment, the pool can be a dangerous place.

Each year over 1,000 children (about 250 under the age of 5) die in swimming related accidents and over 5,000 others are hospitalized. Additionally, spas and whirlpools kill over 200 children annually. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), approximately 1,600 children are treated in hospital emergency rooms for submersion injuries annually. Adults are not immune from aquatic accidents. Many adults suffer severe injuries when they combine alcohol and swimming. Furthermore, severe spinal cord injuries may result from diving into water that is too shallow.

A pool owner may be negligent if he or she fails to post adequate warnings regarding water depth.
