Negligence and Swimming Pool Accidents

The question of liability involves both product liability and premises liability negligence. Premises liability means that a property owner is liable for injuries caused by a dangerous or hazardous condition. An owner is negligent if they fail to take proper precautions to prevent drowning or other swimming pool accidents. Negligence is the failure to do what is required to provide a safe place. If pool equipment was improperly installed, there may be negligence against the installers.
