The High Duty of Care Owed by Paradise Resorts

An injury or drowning at a resort pool is almost never a "freak accident". It is typically the direct result of a hotel failing in its legal duty to provide a safe environment for its guests.

Under Nevada's premises liability laws, these multi-billion dollar corporations owe you and your family the highest duty of care. This means they must be proactive and vigilant in preventing foreseeable harm. When they cut corners on safety to increase profits, they must be held responsible for the tragic consequences.

Strict Rules for Resort Pools: Holding Hotels Accountable

The massive pool complexes in Paradise are not just amenities; they are highly regulated public facilities. The Southern Nevada Health District has a detailed set of regulations that govern everything from water clarity and chemical levels to the mandatory requirements for safety equipment, fencing, and self-latching gates.

A hotel's failure to comply with any of these safety codes can be powerful evidence of its negligence in your claim.

Common Forms of Negligence at Paradise Resort Pools

In our experience, these tragedies are often caused by a hotel's conscious decision to prioritize profits over guest safety. We investigate all forms of negligence, including:

• Inadequate or negligent lifeguarding: Failing to have enough lifeguards for the size of the crowd, or hiring lifeguards who are improperly trained or distracted.
• Broken or missing safety equipment: Including non-compliant fences and gates, missing rescue equipment, or dangerously slick pool decks.
• Overcrowding: Allowing the pool area to become so crowded that lifeguards cannot effectively scan the water and identify a swimmer in distress.
• Over-serving alcohol: Continuing to serve alcohol to visibly intoxicated guests at pool bars, leading to impaired swimming and accidents.
• Improper maintenance: Cloudy water that obscures the bottom of the pool or faulty drain covers that can cause entrapment.

Drowning Is a Silent Epidemic

The danger of drowning is often misunderstood. It is not the loud, splashing event often depicted in movies. It is fast and silent. As organizations like the National Drowning Prevention Alliance (NDPA) have documented, a person can lose consciousness in as little as 20 seconds. Constant, vigilant supervision by hotel staff is not just a suggestion; it is a life-or-death necessity.

What to Do in the Aftermath of a Pool Accident

1. Get immediate emergency medical help: Prioritize your safety and well-being.
2. Report the incident to the hotel: Insist on filing a formal, written incident report with hotel management.
3. Document everything: Ask a trusted friend or family member to take photos of the pool area, including any broken gates, empty lifeguard stands, or other hazards.
4. Get witness information: Collect the names and phone numbers of anyone who saw what happened.
5. Do not speak to their representatives: Do not give a recorded statement to the hotel's risk managers or their insurance company; they are not on your side.
6. Contact our firm immediately: Evidence in these cases can disappear quickly. It is critical to have an experienced legal team begin an investigation right away.

Seeking Full Compensation for a Lifetime of Loss

In the case of a near-drowning that results in a permanent brain injury, the cost of future care can be astronomical. In the tragic event of a death, the family's loss is immeasurable. We fight for a full recovery that accounts for every aspect of these tragedies, including:

{#checklist}

• All past and future medical expenses, including lifelong care for brain injury victims.
• Loss of future income and financial support.
• Compensation for the family's profound grief, sorrow, and loss of companionship.
• The deceased's conscious pain and suffering before passing.

Frequently Asked Questions by Swimming Pool Victims

#faqs_start

How can we prove the hotel's lifeguards were negligent?

We investigate by securing employee records, training certifications, and surveillance video. We analyze witness statements and often work with aquatic safety professionals to determine whether the number of lifeguards was sufficient for the number of guests and if they were positioned and acting in accordance with industry safety standards.

Can we sue a hotel for a child's drowning?

Yes. If the drowning was caused by the hotel's failure to provide a safe environment, such as having a broken gate, no lifeguard, or other violations of safety regulations, the family has the right to file a wrongful death lawsuit against the hotel for their negligence.

We are local residents and were guests at a hotel pool for the day. Do we have the same rights as overnight hotel guests?

Yes. As a lawful guest on their property, whether you are staying overnight or are a local visiting for the day, the resort owes you the same high duty of care to ensure the pool area is reasonably safe. Your legal rights to seek compensation for an injury caused by the hotel's negligence are just as strong.
