There are many different causes of drowning accidents, however they frequently occur in public places as a result of insufficient property repairs or maintenance. Small children and other individuals are prone to drowning as a result of pool drains, lack of security or lifeguards, or dangerous hazards.

The owner or manager of any public pools are required to fit them for certain parts and equipment to ensure no guests can get stuck in the drains. If a piece of equipment did not meet certain standards, the manufacturer or owner may be held liable.

Drowning accidents can happen in any of the following places:



• Water parks
• Apartment complexes
• Hotels and motels
• Lakes and rivers
