San Diego Diving Board Injury Lawyers
Millions of Americans visit either a public or private swimming pool every year across the United States to have fun and relax with friends and family. Swimming pools can be a great place to escape the summer heat, but they can also be a place of danger for children and adults alike when pool owners act recklessly. One threat to anyone’s safety at a swimming pool is a poorly constructed or maintained diving board, which can cause serious injuries.
Diving boards can provide hours of entertainment when they are in safe condition and when used properly. Unfortunately, they can also be extremely dangerous. If you or someone you know has been injured in a diving board accident because of a negligent pool owner, contact our San Diego diving board injury lawyers of Ritter & Associates today at (619) 296-0123 and schedule a free consultation.
Common Types of Diving Board Injuries
While diving boards are fun, they also need to be used with caution by all patrons. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Additionally, pool owners may not always keep diving boards in the best of conditions, putting everyone in danger. As a result, people can be injured in a number of ways due to diving boards, including:
- Landing on other swimmers in the pool
- Hitting one’s head on the diving board, bottom of the pool, or side of the pool
- Back and spinal cord injuries from landing on one’s back
- Diving in too shallow of water
When diving boards and swimming pools aren’t properly maintained, you could suffer a serious accident. Find out whether or not you are eligible to file a personal injury claim for your diving board injury.
