Types of Swimming Pool Accidents That May Be Grounds for a Claim

Here are some common types of swimming pool accidents that may make you eligible for a personal injury or wrongful death claim:

Injury on Another Person’s Property

If you were swimming at another person’s pool and they failed to maintain the pool and its equipment, they may be liable for your accident. For example, according to Arizona law §36-1681, a swimming pool is required to have a fence, wall, or barrier that is at least five feet tall. Homeowners are also required to install pool barriers to protect children who may be visiting the home and who are vulnerable to drowning.

Equipment Failure

Pool equipment companies owe a duty to sell products that are free from defects. If a defect or the failure of the equipment in the pool led to a pool injury or drowning, you may be able to hold the company liable.

Reckless Behavior of Another Party

If you were at a pool, and the recklessness of another party caused you or a loved one to be injured, you may be able to file a personal injury claim. If your loved one passed away due to a drowning, you may be eligible to file a wrongful death claim. A wrongful death claim would hold the liable party personally responsible for your damages.

Types of Injuries We Have Seen After Swimming Pool Accidents

While every accident is different, some of the most common types of injuries that happen as a result of swimming pool accidents include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) and other head injuries: These injuries can happen as a result of slipping and falling on the deck of a pool or jumping head-first into an area of the pool that was too shallow.
  • Spinal cord injuries and neck injuries: Spinal cord injuries can also happen from slip and fall accidents or from jumping head-first into the This type of injury can result in partial or complete paralysis and impact a person’s bladder and bowel control.
  • Broken bones, cuts, and lacerations: These injuries can range in severity. They can occur from jumping into the pool or from something that may be unexpectedly in the pool.

These are just a few possible injuries that can occur as a result of a swimming pool accident.

Proving Negligence in Your Swimming Pool Accident Case

In order to pursue compensation in a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, we must prove that the at-fault party behaved negligently. To do this, we must establish:

  • Duty of care: The defendant must have had a legal duty to you or your loved one that passed to behave in a certain way. For example, if the accident happened at someone’s home, they have a legal duty of care to put a fence around their pool and install barriers. A pool equipment company owes a duty to consumers to sell products that are safe and free of defects.
  • Breach of duty: The next element that must exist in a case is a breach of duty. Often a failure to act—such as a failure to take the proper safety measures regarding a pool—is a breach of duty. Oftentimes the case will hinge on what a reasonable person will do, which can, in some cases, be challenging to determine.
  • Causation: The breach of duty must have caused your accident.
  • Damages: You must have sustained physical, financial, and/or emotional damages.

This was the 1st time I've used Zanes Law. It was a fantastic experience for having to go through a situation most would rather not. The attorney and staff were always available to answer my questions and explained things clearly and were obviously 100% in my corner. My attorney, Jim, was very genuine and made me immediately comfortable when I came in to speak with him about my case. Every case manager I dealt with was patient and helpful. I would definitely return to Zanes should the time ever come again that I need a personal injury firm.

Zanes Law was a terrific legal experience. I first went to a law firm that only wanted me to go to physical therapy and pad the bill, so they could utilize my insurance policy to its capacity. Once I went to Zanes, they were honest, professional and prompt with calls almost once a week. Sometimes I got a call just because we did not have contact for close to two weeks. Some calls were to just ask how I was doing. I also received more money than originally discussed. Great job Zanes Law!!!!! If need be I will use their services again. THANKS
