What Is a Drowning Accident Claim?<\/h2>\n

A drowning accident claim is a legal case against a property owner, operator, or third party whose negligence caused the drowning, and in a fatal case under Florida law it is brought by the decedent’s personal representative for the benefit of the survivors and estate.<\/p>\n

Drowning accident claims cover fatal drownings (called wrongful death claims), near-fatal drownings with permanent brain injury or organ damage, and severe injuries from submersion. If you survived a drowning but suffered catastrophic brain damage due to oxygen deprivation, you can pursue a claim. If your loved one died, a wrongful death claim can be brought by the decedent’s personal representative for the benefit of your family. These claims hold negligent parties accountable and secure compensation to cover medical costs, lost income, funeral expenses, and the family’s loss\u2014including the loss of companionship and financial support.<\/p>\n
