Many public pools, such as neighborhood pools, hotel pools and other recreational pools, are poorly maintained and monitored creating dangerous conditions in and around the pool.  Inadequate lighting and foggy water can cause someone to fail to realize a loved one is missing until it is too late, and dangerous conditions on the pool deck can create fall hazards.  If you or a loved one has been injured at a pool, contact Kuhlman & Lucas, LLC today for a free case evaluation.

According to Missouri law, stores, bars and other companies may be held liable for injuries suffered on their premises if they failed to protect the public from known dangerous conditions on their premises.  This can include criminal acts which occur on their premises.  If you or a loved one has been hurt as a result of a company’s failure to protect its guests from known dangers, contact Kuhlman & Lucas today for a free case evaluation.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that nearly one million people seek medical attention for injuries suffered in dog attacks each year, with children accounting for about half of this number. Dog owners must take care to protect others from their pet, especially if they are aware of the dog’s aggressive nature.

According to Missouri premises liability law, the doctrine of attractive nuisance applies to child trespassers. This doctrine of attractive nuisance states that a land owner may be responsible for child injuries, even if he or she was unaware of the child’s presence. For example, a property owner could be held responsible for a child who trespasses and falls into an abandoned swimming pool. According to the doctrine of attractive nuisance, the owner should have known that pool could attract a curious child and taken adequate measures to prevent accidents.
