Swimming pools are part of our lives in California.  Sadly, swimming pools can also be deadly. Drowning and near-drowning incidents, as well as serious slip and fall accidents, happen all too frequently. Sometimes an accident at a swimming pool is just that — an accident. But other times, the incident may have been preventable. In such cases, questions may be raised about the victim's or the family's legal rights to seek financial compensation from the person or people responsible for the accident.
