A Dedicated
Injury Law Firm
Cases involving
accidental drowning, pool injury, spa injury, drain entrapment, and diving injury, are horrifying,
physically and emotionally devastating. In most instances, they are completely preventable.
Any death related
to drowning, drain entrapment, pool equipment failure, pool barrier or pool fence failure, pool
design defect, or pool owner negligence, is a tragedy for which comfort or peace may seem permanently out of
reach.
While some pool and
spa tragedies may find contribution on the part of adults not closely monitoring children, in many
unfortunate cases, even when adults are present, children are sucked under the water and entrapped by faulty
pool drains and spa drains.
These injuries are
often catastrophic, resulting in permanent, life-altering physical damage, disfigurement, and sadly,
death.
Warning: Time is of the Essence
Delays Can Defeat Your Valid Claim
Deadlines that most people don't know about can destroy any chance you have to recover for your injuries. These
deadlines are unforgiving - if you miss them, you will be barred forever from making a legal claim, no matter how
hurt you are.
That's why we start investigating and working on your case immediately. Don't wait to hire a random lawyer to
handle your case.
You Do Not Have To Fight This Battle Alone
I'm attorney David Harris, and I represent injured persons and family members whose loved ones have been lost to
wrongful death due to the negligence and wrongdoing of others.
You should know that insurance companies hire teams of lawyers to fight against injury victims. You need an
experienced injury lawyer by your side who has the skills and experience to stand up for your
rights.
The fact is that you probably never thought about hiring an attorney until an accident or personal injury disrupted
your life.
Picking a lawyer who has the knowledge and abilities to fight for you, seeking to achieve the best results possible
for your personal injury case, and putting your family interests first, can be a key factor between winning
and losing.
So, don't harm your case by waiting to contact a lawyer -- call me 1-8777-274-2080 -- and you'll be connected to an
injury lawyer immediately.
Let Our Experience Work for You
After you've had time to search for a lawyer, ask and ask questions, we're confident you will, in the end, turn to
us.
I created this law firm with a purpose: doing
good for others.
I wanted this law firm to be different from others. It centers on personal service and attention, and so
instead of trying to amass a huge client list, I want to represent fewer, good and decent people who have
encountered true hardship, harms, and losses, because of others' misconduct.
We
listen to your concerns and quickly identify how you might be able to solve your problems through the legal system.
We can help level the playing field in your fight for justice and fairness.
We start working on your case immediately. I have practicing law since 1995, and that experience can benefit
you.
I believe I set my injury law firm apart from other firms by being actively involved at every stage of the
representation, returning phone calls (even on evenings and weekends), and moving cases forward as quickly as
possible, and fighting for your rights. No large firm bureaucracy gets in the way. You are not a "file"
or just some "case."
I believe in developing a personal, strong bond with each client, and then limiting the number of clients I serve
so each and every one -- including you -- receives personal attention and service.
We're different, and I'm proud of that. After all, that's why I established this law firm. I was tired
of how other law firms worked, which, at times, don't seem to put the client first.
So I have taken my experience of successfully representing thousands of individuals over the years, including
litigating and trying peoples' cases,
and established this firm to serve good people, just like you.
I'm proud of my accomplishments, my skills, and my vision for my clients. Learn more about me, my law
firm, and how we'll represent you.
Pool
Injury Statistics Are Horrifying, and Represent Changed
Lives and Altered
Families
Consider, for
example, that although drowning rates are in decline, more than 1,000 children die each year due to swimming
accidents in the U.S. and one third of these occur in swimming pools. It takes under two inches of water and less
than five minutes for a child to drown.
If you think you
have a swimming pool accident claim, then please contact an injury lawyer at our firm as soon as
possible.
Drowning continues
to be the second-leading cause of injury-related deaths among children. Even more
children undergo emergency care for nonfatal submersion injuries. This type of injury can cause brain
damage resulting in long-term disabilities.
Adults Are Susceptible to Pool Drowning and Pool
Injury
Adults are
not immune from swimming pool accidents, especially when they combine swimming with alcohol. Spinal cord
injuries can also result from diving into water that is too shallow. If a swimming pool owner fails to post
adequate water depth warnings, he or she may be negligent.
Most
swimming pool injuries occur due to a failure to properly secure a pool from small children, improper
construction or design of a swimming pool, and/or failure to maintain the pool in good condition. Liability for
swimming pool accidents can involve three types of law - negligence or tort law, premises liability law, and
product liability law.
Who Is Responsible?
How Will You Move Forward?
While no one wants to have to take legal action
to ensure that the injured family member’s future, including the costs of advanced and specialized medical care,
surgical reconstruction, rehabilitation, advanced therapies, and special programs to help promote and secure an
enriched, happy, and fulfilling, life, the fact is most liable parties are not going to offer to pay for all of
these things.
At
least . . . not willingly.
You
can take legal steps to immediately protect and secure your rights and your family’s legal rights.

Diving Injury
While many States have passed pool safety
laws designed to prevent swimming pool accidents and drain entrapment or drain suction injury, as well as diving
injury, unfortunately, diving injury continues with catastrophic results for the injury victim and
family.
Swimming pool diving injuries stay a frequent
source of litigation due to the fact they are often severe and avoidable. Diving problems can often end result in
traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury. By using some precautions, diving incidents may be
avoided.
If
you or a cherished family member was involved in the swimming pool diving accident, then consider some the
following questions: was warning symptoms present close to or around the swimming pool? What was the swimming
pool width? What was the lighting like? What was the pool depth? Was pool depth marked, and if so, how? Were other
people diving prior to the diving accident at issue?
An
knowledgeable personal injury lawyer at our firm may be able to ascertain if negligence was involved on the
part with the pool owner, seller of the swimming pool, or builder of the swimming pool.
Near Drowning
Accident
A nonfatal submersion, or near-drowning event, while even temporary or lasting only a few moments, can lead to
oxygen deprivation. This oxygen deprivation, in turn, can lead to brain damage or brain injury.
Unfortunately, such brain injury is often irreversible, leading the pool victim to lapse into a coma or vegetative
state. Sadly, death results when artificial means of life support are shut down by medical personnel and the
family.
Submersion can occur in several circumstances:
·
inexperienced swimmer
·
inattentive lifeguard
·
negligent lifeguard
·
child swimmer who is mistakenly submerged or towed under the surface by an inexperienced swimmer or non-swimming
child
·
pool owner inattention
·
pool owner negligence
·
lack of supervision
·
drain cover entrapment
·
spa drain entrapment
·
pool drain suction
·
spa drain suction
There are, of course, other circumstances which can lead to near-drowning and resulting brain damage.
You can take action. Seeking damages for the cost of medical treatment, hospitalization, innovative medical
treatments and therapies, rehabilitation, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life are several forms of
compensation that may be available to your family.
Drain Entrapment Injury • Spa Drain
Entrapment
Importantly, your efforts, if successful, may also likely lead to prevention of such personal injury and wrongful
death occurring to other families.
Pool drain covers, spa drain covers, whirlpool drain covers, all appear innocent enough.
The problem is they have suction power which can literally suck hair, skin, and other body parts with such force
that a child, or even an adult, can become lodged into the drain itself.
This is called “drain entrapment.” It often leads to catastrophic injury, or death. In light of new federal
state laws and requirements, it should not occur at all.
Catastrophic injuries resulting from spa drain entrapment, pool drain entrapment, defectively designed pools and
spas, or because the pool or spa lacks basic safety features, often requires a thorough investigation. It
requires a knowledge of the applicable law, rules, and regulations, as well as what experts to retain to perform a
prompt and thorough investigation.
These cases are often complex and expensive to prosecute, requiring critical review analysis and review of the key
evidence, not only by the attorney, but by appropriate experts selected by your attorney.
After performing our investigation, we move to swiftly civilly prosecute the responsible parties we reasonably
conclude are accountable for the catastrophic injury or death resulting from the spa drain entrapment, pool drain
entrapment, or swimming pool accident.
