Hot tubs, often seen as relaxing and enjoyable, can pose a serious risk. While drowning in a hot tub may not be as common as in pools, the danger is real and often overlooked.
Client’s Case
A 22 year old man with a history of epilepsy was using a spa at a local casino and drowned. We argued that the lifeguard was not paying attention. The defense claimed that drowning arose from the failure to take medication. Only after years of extensive proceedings did the case settle at a mediation while being prepared for trial.
