Attorney For Outdoor Recreational Accidents

Summer Accidents

As the days lengthen and the sun warms the earth, people abandon their homes and head for the great outdoors. Yet, for all the great pleasures summer brings - the pool, summer camps, the beach, the playground, the ball fields, the bike-rides, boating, and hundreds of other activities - there are dangers that come with those pleasures. Summer is also prime accident season. Sadly, those who administer and maintain our recreational places sometimes take too many short cuts and their negligence can endanger all of us, especially our children who are most vulnerable.

Parents often send their kids off to summer camp with both pride and foreboding. Pride in trusting their child to begin maturing and growing without a constant parental presence, and fear of not being there to protect the child. Unfortunately, some of these fears are well grounded. While most camps operate safely, there are too many who seem to think that safety somehow subtracts from the experience.  Improperly maintained facilities, counselors barely old enough to supervise themselves and high risk activities can combine to injure your child or worse.  If your child is injured at camp, you need a law firm that can fight for your child and hold the negligent parties responsible. Segal and Lax is that firm.

All water activities involve a heightened danger and pool accidents are among the most common summer danger. Whether it's a failure to have lifeguards, improperly designed facilities, neglecting to warn of risks and hazards, or any other type of negligence, the results can be catastrophic. At Segal & Lax we have twenty years of experience representing victims of negligence. We work with leading experts in recreational safety to obtain the highest possible compensation for our clients.
