I was riding my motorcycle in Detroit when a tractor-trailer truck forced me to roll into an oncoming lane of traffic. I suffered a traumatic brain injury and bone fractures, which required surgeries. I chose Buckfire & Buckfire for my case and they settled it for $1,100,000.00. In my opinion, they are the best motorcycle accident lawyers in Michigan.

Our Michigan swimming pool injury lawyers handle cases for clients injured in both Michigan public swimming pools and private swimming pools. Swimming pool accidents often result in catastrophic and tragic injuries. According to the Center for Disease Control, there were over 3,300 deaths caused by drowning or submersion in 2000. In addition to drowning, other serious injuries include spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and serious bone fractures. Many cases give rise to a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit.
Michigan swimming pool injury lawyers handling these cases must be aware of all rules, regulations, statutes, and ordinances for swimming pools in order to obtain the best settlement for their client.
Owners of swimming pools, both public and private, can be held liable for their negligence in maintaining a safe a swimming pool. Although the vast majority of these accidents happen in backyard pools, there are many in hotel swimming pools, public water parks, and municipal swimming pools.
For private property owners who have a pool on their property, they are required to have a fence around that area. It is also recommended that they have isolation fencing with self-latching gates, motion detectors, and effective pool covers to prevent small children from gaining access to the pool. It is also important that children be supervised at all times while in or near a swimming pool. Leaving the pool side for just a minute to use a bathroom or answer a phone call may result in tragedy if a child falls into a pool or enters the pool unsupervised.
In public swimming pools, like hotels, a drowning or other serious injury may occur due to poor maintenance causing a slippery pool floor or “muddied” water, which makes it difficult to see a person struggling beneath the water. The failure to have proper lighting, an emergency phone, and other safety equipment may also constitute negligence, as well as the failure to have lifeguards or the failure to restrict access to the pool can give rise to a claim. Further, the failure to properly mark pool depth, separate swimming lines, and design a pool can provide a basis for liability.
Our firm has obtained significant settlements in cases involving serious injury and wrongful death related to Michigan swimming pool accidents. An early investigation is the key to winning these cases. It is important to hire a Michigan swimming pool injury lawyer as soon as possible after a Michigan swimming pool accident to begin working on the case.
