Demanda por accidente químico en una piscina

Pools must be properly maintained; if they are not, and swimmers are injured, there is a degree of negligence present. Premises liability can be cited if the property owner knew there was a hazard present yet did nothing to fix it or warn others about it, caused the hazard in the first place, or was not aware of the hazard but reasonably should have been. The operators at a pool owe the swimmers a duty of care, and the violation of that duty of care can result in an accident and injuries. These are the basic tenets of premises liability and personal injury law. Therefore, if a pool operator poured some kind of chemical in the water and you were injured because of it, you can likely sue the party responsible, whether a private entity or a business.

We recommend following these guidelines if you wish to file a lawsuit:

First, go to the hospital to get medical treatment. If you do not get treatment, you run the risk of worsening your health and becoming more injured. You also may not be taken seriously if there is a large gap between the injury and the treatment. While at the hospital or at the doctor’s office, you should also request copies of the notes, visit details, medication, receipts, and more.

You should take pictures of the injuries you suffered, as well as pictures of the scene of the incident. If possible, you should get security footage showing the chemicals that were dumped into the water. This may be very difficult to acquire, though, as most business will wipe this footage or stow it away to prevent it incriminating them or their employees.

If there were any eyewitnesses who saw the incident occur, you can ask them for their statements and testimonies. This will benefit your claim, as multiple supporting perspectives will show that there was something amiss. You also may ask other victims and swimmers if they wish to join the claim and enact a class action lawsuit. This would include heaps of evidence submitted by all the plaintiffs and could have a higher chance of success than a single claim.

If you entered a private pool, be sure to produce copies of your membership details or payment to the facility. This will show that you were a rightful guest or patron and that you were legally on the property.

It will be necessary for you to collect the contact information, insurance details, and business details of the pool owner. You should also file an incident report with the manager or supervisor.

If you were injured due to chemicals present in a poo, you could receive ample compensation for your damages. We will ensure that you are given the maximum settlement available under the law.

The value of your case will be determined by the insurance agent handling it; he will look at various factors, such as your responsibility and the severity of your damage, and he will make an offer. If the offer is not adequate, we will further negotiate until we are satisfied with the result.

Our lawyers will strive to win you the following damages:

• Medical expenses, including surgery, hospitalization, physical therapy, medication, and future medical treatments
• Lost wages if you could not return to work due to future medical procedures, recovery time, and more, which could include reimbursement of pay, commissions, tips, bonuses, and other income
• Daños materiales si se perdieron o rompieron objetos personales en el siniestro

California has a 2-year statute of limitations on personal injury claims, which means that you cannot pursue compensation if you do not file a lawsuit within the time limit. The statute of limitations is in place to ensure that you act within an appropriate amount of time and so that both parties can gather evidence without unfair time qualities, such as a defunct business or a rushed statute. The faster you gather evidence, the more likely it is that it will remain intact and not get corrupted or lost.

There are a few methods in which the statute of limitations can be extended. Your case can qualify if you were underage at the time of the incident (the statute would begin when you turn 18 years old) or if you were left incapacitated or mentally unstable afterward (the statute would not start until you return to health). There is also the opportunity for the statute to be suspended if the defendant has left the state for a period of time; it will not start until he returns and is present.

You should also be aware that lawsuits filed against public entities, such as a public pool, have a decreased statute of limitations – you must sue within 6 months or you will not be able to receive restitution.

Many cases are simply ignored because victims do not know the statute of limitations exists or because they do not know how much time remains on their claims. If you come to our law firm, we will ensure that your lawsuit is filed in the appropriate amount of time. We do not miss deadlines, and we will not risk your case being lost because of time.
