Choosing The Right California Drowning Accident Lawyer
Drownings in California are almost always the result of negligence. They can be the result of negligent supervision, the lack of a pool cover, negligence by care givers and the result of improper actions by others in the pool who cause a person to be injured and drown.
On occasion, a drowning of an adult, is a result of the adult’s own negligence as in the situation where an adult goes swimming after drinking heavily in the burning sun and then goes swimming in deep water only to find they pass out or can no longer swim because of their drunken state.

Drownings don’t occur infrequently and they don’t occur just in swimming pools. They can occur in great numbers when precautions aren’t taken. In the summer of 2010, it was reported that over 2000 Russians drowned after drinking heavily and then going swimming in the sea.
The sea and the ocean can be especially dangerous to children and adults alike. However, where a child or elderly person is being supervised, there is negligence when the supervising adult allows or fails to prevent the person under their care from venturing out too far or beyond their swimming capabilities and then fails to do anything about it.
But a person doesn’t have to be in deep water to drown. A child can drown in a bathtub just as easily as in an ocean. And if a child is left alone in the bathtub unsupervised, and drowns, there is negligence involved.
Drowning is the second leading cause of death of small children according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Adults who drink heavily are often found to have drowned in Jacuzzis and in their own pools. Sadly, too many people lose their lives unnecessarily in this manner.
However, with children who are being supervised or cared for at day care facilities, in schools, and in camps, one expects their child to be watched carefully so this type of situation does not occur.
Even after a person is saved from drowning, they must be rushed to the hospital for evaluation. It is all too frequent that a person thinks they are fine and then expires hours later from the near drowning.
