Bonita Springs Swimming Pool AccidenT Attorneys

Get Expert Insight From Our Personal Injury Lawyers in Fort Myers, Naples & Southwest Florida

Did you know that there are more than 10 million pools, including 350,000 public pools spanned out across the United States? With our scorching and humid summer days here in Florida, swimming is a desirable activity that can provide hours of entertainment for the family. Although spending the next Saturday afternoon by the pool sounds like a dream come true, there are many potential dangers for young children around the pool area.

It is important to understand the dangers of unsupervised swimming and the threat of drowning. Not many people are aware of this, but drowning is actually the second leading cause of death for kids age 15 and under. Statistically speaking, there are approximately three children who die every day as a result of drowning. If your child has suffered submersion injuries in a near-drowning experience, then speak with a Fort Myers swimming pool accident lawyer from our firm today!

The Causes of Swimming Pool Accidents

All it takes is five minutes for an unsupervised child to drown. When kids are out of sight or a parent goes inside for just a few minutes, the eminent dangers grow immensely. It is very important that children do not go unobserved while they are in the swimming pool or hot tub. The number one leading cause of swimming pool accidents is inadequate supervision.

However, there are several other causes that could lead to serious injury or even wrongful death, including:

  • Too many people in the pool at once (overcrowding)
  • Fence around the pool is broken and ineffective
  • Broken or damaged pool ladders (or none at all)
  • Broken pool lights for night swimming
  • Lifeguards with inadequate training
  • Lack of pool safety equipment such as a throwing rope
  • Swimming in cloudy or dark water
  • Defective pool drain or spa drain
  • Lack of safety lines to distinguish the deep end from the shallow end
  • Poor pool maintenance
  • Defective pool equipment

This is why it is so important that swimming pool owners take extra precautions to ensure that the swimming pool equipment is well maintained and that swimmers are kept closely supervised.
