Personal Injury - Swimming & Diving Accidents

New Jersey Pool Accident Lawyers
Pool Accident Attorneys in New Jersey

Most swimming pool injuries occur because of improperly designed and constructed pools, failure to properly secure a pool from small children, and failure to maintain the swimming pool in good condition.

Owners of private "backyard" pools have a responsibility to provide a safe environment for children and adults alike and need to focus on accident prevention. Public pools such as community pools and hotel/motel pools are also subject to the same guidelines. If you have been injured in a swimming pool accident, you may be able to file a "premises liability" claim against the responsible owner of any pool if you can prove the owner was negligent, that that negligence caused an injury and that damages occurred as a result of that injury.

Liability for swimming pool or spa accidents can involve three types of law - negligence or tort law, product liability law and premises liability law. However, the liability is not absolute. You must still prove that you did not disregard on open and obvious danger. These laws are complex and require the expertise of a personal injury lawyer with experience handling serious swimming pool injury cases. Therefore, please contact Aiello, Harris, Devero, Marth & Schiffman so we can evaluate the claim and better advise you.
