Where and Why Drowning Accidents Happen

Drownings can occur anywhere water is present, and most are caused by negligence. Our firm investigates incidents involving:

Public and private swimming pools
Waterparks and amusement parks
Hotels, resorts, and cruise ships
Apartment complexes and HOA pools
Lakes, beaches, and marinas
Inadequate supervision by lifeguards or staff

In many cases, these tragedies result from improper maintenance, defective pool equipment, lack of safety barriers, or distracted supervision. We hold every responsible party accountable: from individual lifeguards to corporate operators.

Understanding Liability in Drowning Cases

Drowning claims often involve premises liability or wrongful death law, depending on the circumstances. To win these cases, our attorneys prove that a property owner, business, or municipality failed to uphold its duty of care.

For instance:

A hotel neglects to maintain pool drains, leading to suction injuries.
A lifeguard fails to monitor swimmers or respond promptly.
A homeowner allows unsafe access to an unfenced pool.

We move fast to secure witness statements, video footage, inspection reports, and expert testimony before evidence disappears.

Common Drowning and Near-Drowning Injuries

Even when a victim survives, near-drowning events often cause severe and lasting harm. These cases frequently involve:

Traumatic brain injury from oxygen deprivation
Lung damage or respiratory failure
Permanent disability
Cardiac arrest
Psychological trauma

We work with top medical experts to assess long-term impact because a drowning injury is rarely just physical.

Compensation for Drowning Victims and Families

A drowning accident brings overwhelming emotional and financial strain. Our attorneys pursue every available form of compensation, including:

Medical and rehabilitation expenses
Funeral and burial costs
Lost future income or financial support
Pain and suffering
Loss of companionship

Punitive damages in cases of egregious neglect

We fight for full accountability, not partial settlements or quiet payouts.
