Dangerous Defective
Pools, Wading Pool and Tubs |
|
| While pools, wading pools
and tubs can be great fun, when defective or unsafely
designed they can be hazardous to pose particularly
serious dangers to babies and toddlers. |
| Common safety hazards
that parents should be aware of include obvious
hazards like drownings but also more hidden dangers
like electric shocks in pools, tubs and spas. Infant
injuries can also occur due to defective suction
drains, and serious infections can result from
improperly cleaned pools. |
| Faulty underwater
lighting, aging wiring and vacuums that are
not grounded can all cause electrocution. There
have been 60 deaths and nearly 50 serious shocks
reported over the past 13 years involving electrical
hazards in and around swimming pools. |

| The law in most states provides individuals with
legal claims and the right to compensation for
injuries they suffer as a result of a defective
product or the negligence of another. The injured
person may file a lawsuit seeking compensation
for his or her pain and suffering, medical expenses,
lost past and future wages and punitive damages. |
