New Jersey Failure to Supervise Lawyers

Young children are generally allowed to swim only in the presence of adults. Swimming pools can be dangerous places for anyone, and this is especially true of those who are young and inexperienced. Children are the most common victims of drowning, often because of a lack of proper supervision.

Failing to supervise a child in or around a swimming pool may be grounds for a personal injury lawsuit if the child suffers an injury. If your child suffered an injury or drowned while swimming in another person’s pool, contact the New Jersey failure to supervise lawyers of Levinson Axelrod, P.A., at 800-346-5529 for more information about seeking justice.

Dangers of a Lack of Supervision

When property owners and parents fail to supervise children who are swimming, there may be a number of serious consequences that result from this inaction. Since many children are not strong swimmers, they may:

  • Get caught in pool drains
  • Slip and fall near the pool
  • Drown in excessively deep water

Any of these situations can lead to serious injuries, including broken bones and lung and brain damage. In some cases, children may die in these swimming pool accidents, especially if they remain submersed in the water for an extended period of time.

Parents of children who were injured in someone else’s swimming pool as a result of a lack of supervision should contact a New Jersey failure to supervise lawyer to learn more about taking legal action against the property owner.
