Swimming Pool Accidents Can Be Dangerous—Even Deadly
When swimming pools are not properly maintained or supervised, they can be extremely dangerous to swimmers. Common causes of swimming pool accidents include inadequate care, poor maintenance, and insufficient safety precautions.
Victims can slip or fall on the slick decking surrounding the pool when proper warning signs or supervision are not present. These slip and fall accidents can result in:
- Broken or fractured bones
- Torn ligaments
- Dislocated hips or shoulders
- Sprains and soft tissue injuries
Divers can suffer serious head injuries by hitting the bottom of the pool when allowed to dive headfirst into shallow areas. These diving accidents can cause:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Paralysis (paraplegia or quadriplegia)
- Drowning or wrongful death
If you or a loved one has been injured in a swimming pool accident, contact Victory Law Group today. Let us help you hold the negligent party accountable and pursue compensation for your medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages.
Most often, negligence can be proven on the part of the swimming pool owner, property management company, or facility custodian. We’ll help you prove the negligent or inappropriate acts by facility employees, lifeguards, supervisors, or property owners.

Common Questions About Personal Injury Cases in California
If you’ve been injured, you probably have questions about how the legal process works, what it costs, and how long you have to take action. Here are straightforward answers to the questions we hear most often from injured Californians.
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover compensation for you. You pay no attorney fees unless we win your case.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
In most cases, you have two years from the date of your injury to file a claim. However, some cases have shorter deadlines, especially claims involving government entities. It’s important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
How is the value of my case determined?
Every case is different. The value depends on factors like the severity of your injuries, your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and how the injury has affected your daily life. We review all of these factors during your free consultation.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
California follows a “comparative negligence” rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partly responsible. Your settlement may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you’re not automatically disqualified.
How long does a personal injury case take?
It depends. Some cases settle in a few months, while others, especially those involving serious injuries or disputes over fault, can take longer. We move as quickly as possible while making sure you receive fair compensation.
Do I have to go to court?
Most personal injury cases settle out of court. However, we prepare every case for trial to strengthen your negotiating position and ensure you’re not pressured into accepting less than you deserve.
