We will find out what has caused you harm
There are legal standards for swimming pool safety. Chapter 515 of the Florida Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act (RSPSA) details safety measures that residential swimming pool owners must take.
These steps include:
- Installing barriers to the pool so that children and other at-risk groups do not fall in
- Installing an approved pool cover
- Providing a generally safe environment in and around a pool
Failing to provide at least one of the measures listed in the RSPSA could qualify as negligence. It may also be punishable by law.
Our team will determine how your injuries or a loved one’s injuries happened. We will cite any violations of the RSPSA or any other forms of negligence. We may hold parties accountable for:
- Failure to notify you of the depth of a pool
- Hazards like sharp objects in a pool
- Failure to protect at-risk groups from falling into a pool
- Defective equipment in or around a pool
- Failure to properly clean a pool to prevent waterborne illness
- Failure to take reasonable measures to prevent drowning and near-drowning
Our firm will take the appropriate measures to pursue justice on your behalf.
