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.

car accident

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

Legal Liability in a Drowning Accident

Someone would bear some legal responsibility if your drowning accident occurred while you were on a jet ski or at a swimming pool. It could be the swimming pool owner who has a legal obligation to provide a reasonably safe environment for you and other visitors. It could be the jet ski manufacturer whose defective product put you in harm’s way. 

In any case, you would be responsible for proving the other party’s negligence in your accident.

How Negligence Plays a Role

Negligence is a legal principle that holds a party liable for the injuries that their actions have caused another person. In civil court, negligence is established through four elements. These four elements include:

  1. Duty of care. You would be responsible for proving that the defendant owed you a certain level of care for your drowning accident.
  2. Violation of duty of care. This element can be proven when you explain how the defendant’s actions violated the level of care owed to you.
  3. Causation. This element must be proven by exhibiting the connection between the defendant’s negligent actions and your drowning accident.
  4. Damages. This element must be proven by showing the damages caused by your drowning accident. Examples of these damages can include any medical expenses, missed time from work, and pain and suffering affiliated with your accident.

Why You Need the Help of a Phoenix Drowning Accident Lawyer

When you are injured in a drowning accident, your injuries can quickly become catastrophic. Because your injuries are serious, you are entitled to larger amounts of compensation. When you file a lawsuit for your drowning accident, you must mentally prepare yourself to negotiate with insurance companies. 

Seeking the help of a Phoenix drowning accident attorney can bring clarity to your lawsuit and allow you to properly heal from your accident.

Proving the Defendant’s Liability

With a skilled Phoenix drowning accident attorney on your side, you have a greater chance of proving the defendant’s liability in your accident. Your attorney knows the best evidence to use that can create a stronger case for you. Your attorney also knows the types of claims to file to establish the defendant’s liability. 

For example, your attorney may suggest that you file a premises liability claim if the pool owner’s negligence contributed to your drowning accident. In addition to the primary defendant, your attorney can discover other parties who may be responsible for your accident.
