Recoverable Damages in East Point Swimming Pool Accident Cases
Swimming pool accidents can cause devastating injuries. Drownings are tragic. Near-drownings can cause permanent impairment from brain damage. Diving accidents can cause paralysis from spinal cord damage. Slip and fall accidents can cause traumatic brain injuries and fractures.
Every swimming pool accident case is different. The amount of your recovery will depend on the unique facts of your situation.
Here are some of the common categories of money damages people seek to recover from the negligent party in a swimming pool accident injury claim or lawsuit:
- Medical bills for the treatment they needed for their injuries: Ambulatory care, trauma center, hospital, doctors, intensive care units (ICU), and other related healthcare services can be in this category.
- Rehabilitation facility: After a catastrophic injury like head trauma, the victim might need extensive therapeutic intervention to learn how to perform tasks like speaking or walking again.
- Long-term care center: A person injured in a swimming pool accident might lose the ability to live independently because of their wounds. If they need daily assistance with medical treatments or personal care, they might need to move into a nursing home or have home health care for the rest of their lives.
- Lost wages: This category covers the income the injured person did not get paid while recuperating from their wounds. Sometimes, the injured person might be unable to work for weeks or months. In other situations, the disability might be so profound that they cannot earn a living again.
- Pain and suffering: The physical discomfort, emotional distress, and inconvenience of getting injured in a swimming pool accident or not compensated merely by getting one’s medical bills paid. This category addresses those additional issues.
Also, if your loved one lost their life due to a swimming pool accident, we might be able to go after additional money damages for the family.

The Filing Deadline for East Point Swimming Pool Accident Cases
Georgia generally only gives you two years to file a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit against the negligent party under O.C.G.A § 9-3-33. When the defendant is a municipality, the deadline is even shorter. You generally only have six months to take legal action against the city, according to O.C.G.A. § 36-33-5.
You will lose all rights to pursue compensation against the at-fault party, either in a settlement or lawsuit, after the filing deadline passes.
