Swimming pool operators and owners have a duty of care towards those that use their facilities. Injuries and fatalities that result from a failure to mark shallow water, properly place and install diving boards, secure the premises after hours, or place a lifeguard on duty can be grounds for legal action. At the law office of Shea & Shea, our lawyers hold pool owners and operators financially liable for swimming pool accident injuries that occur due to their negligence. When necessary, we work with investigators, medical experts, pool builders, and others in identifying failures and negligence on the part of pool operators and property owners.
