Handling All Types of Swimming Pool Accident Claims
The nature of swimming pools makes them a breeding ground for serious injuries. The concrete around them frequently becomes slippery. If the pavement is uneven, someone could slip and fall, hitting their head. Without proper supervision, someone could easily drown or suffer serious complications. Just a sampling of the types of personal injury cases involving swimming pools that we handle include:
- Slip-and-falls or trip-and-falls
- Diving accidents
- Pool equipment failures
- Drowning and near-drowning
- Chemical exposure
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Neck and spinal cord injuries
Some common injuries from swimming pool accidents include lacerations, broken bones and concussions. These injuries can have lasting effects on a victim’s quality of life – not to mention they can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills.
Understanding Premises Liability in Michigan
Premises liability law holds property owners responsible for accidents that occur on their property, including swimming pool accidents. In 2023, the Michigan Supreme Court overturned decades of legal precedent regarding premises liability claims. The court’s ruling makes it easier to file successful actions against residential and commercial property owners. Our swimming pool accident lawyers can help the victims of pool injuries seek compensation for their damages, no matter how daunting the road ahead.
