Most Drowning Accidents Occur from Negligence: Let Our Nevada Pool Drowning Lawyer Hold Those At Fault Accountable

While some swimming pool drownings cannot be prevented, many fatal cases result from negligence-related factors, such as poor supervision, lack of maintenance, and attractive nuisances.

Our Nevada pool drowning lawyers can investigate the root cause of the accident to determine if it was due to intentional or reckless actions of the property owner or another party. Some common preventable drowning scenarios in swimming pools include the following:

Poorly managed area or a tripping hazard around the pool, causing the victim to slip and fall
Lack of or defective safety equipment, such as a ring buoy or shepherd’s hook
Broken swimming pool ladder, stairs, pool cover, or fence
Improper supervision by those responsible for watching and protecting the swimmers
Lack of signs around the pool warning visitors of dangers
Overcrowding the pool
Lack of water clarity

We can help you take legal action and collect restitution for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages caused by the drowning accident.

Our Nevada Pool Drowning Attorneys Can Review the Facts of Your Case to Determine the Liable Party

A public or private property owner, the swimming pool owner, or the operator tends to hold primary liability if someone drowns in their pool due to negligence. Pool owners must implement safety measures to prevent drowning. These may include:

Installing a fence or another barrier around the pool so people, especially children, do not mistakenly fall into the pool
Ensuring there’s always someone supervising the occupants in the pool
Ensuring high-risk individuals, especially children, are not near areas where suction devices are present
Keep safety devices and emergency kits handy and accessible at all times
Make sure there’s someone present that knows CPR
Prohibit those intoxicated from swimming

A Nevada pool drowning lawyer can assess the cause of the drowning accident and determine if the property owner, pool owner, or operator is liable for the death.

Other entities that can also hold fault for pool drowning incidents include:

Lifeguard:If the drowning accident happened at a public pool while the lifeguard was on duty, you might be able to file a claim against the lifeguard since they are obligated to protect the swimmers from drowning or incurring injuries.
Parts/Product Manufacturers: Manufacturers of defective pool filters, pool drains, ladders, pool safety gear, or barriers can be held liable if the malfunctioning of a specific part played a role in the drowning accident.

Client Testimonials

These guys are amazing. Helped me throughout the process. Always there when I need help. Inititailly called a law firm (the one that has lots of ads on the radio), but they declined my case. Van Law Firm accepted my case without a second thought! Kudos to Daniel, my case manager, and Amanda who expedited my payment process. Highly recommended.

Milby Mags

Got in an accident at the beginning of the year and they have been awesome, especially with it being my first accident and me being like this. They have been very communicated, stayed in contact with me the whole time, giving me updates when there were any and even when there weren’t and answered any question I had. I would recommend them to anyone. Everyone I have talked to there has been very friendly. I would give them a 10 out of 10.

Ethan Gullet

They made sure that my insurance company covered what I paid for them to which included the gap for my car that was totaled. My medical costs were taken care of and reduced substantially so I was able to get more on my settlement. My case manager, Will Garcia, was always helpful in assisting me and answering any questions I had. They really did an amazing job with my case. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of this type of legal help. Most lawyers do not help you with the recovery of the car and rental etc. They are amazing.
