Drowning Injuries & Drowning Deaths

Salem, Massachusetts Drowning Accident Attorneys

Pool owners and operators are financially and legally liable for drowning injuries and deaths that happen as a result of code and safety violations. While each municipality is different, pool owners are typically required to secure their pool with fencing, locks, and lighting that meets specific code requirements. Pool operators are also required to provide a life guard at certain times and to secure their premises as well. Additionally, boat owners and operators are also liable for drowning injuries that occur due to a lack of life vests, boating under the influence, or lack of life preservers. At the law office of Mazow|McCullough, P.C., our lawyers represent victims of drowning due to negligence on the part of pool and boat operators and owners.

At Mazow|McCullough, P.C., our lawyers evaluate your case to determine if you have a cause of action due to someone's failure to exercise a reasonable standard of care.
