Hawaii Diving, Drowning and other Swimming Pool Accidents
Deadlines to file Diving, Drowning and other Swimming Pool Accident claims in Hawaii
The deadline for filing a claim in court arising out of an swimming pool accident in Hawaii can be difficult to determine. Similar
situations may have very different deadlines for filing.
Some claims in swimming pools and private parks
may generally follow Hawaii's
two (2) year statute of limitations. It must be recalled, however,
that pursuant to state law- claims against
the City and County of Honolulu and the other counties (eg. for
accidents at County swimming pools or due to the conduct
of County employees) are
generally subject to a 6 month deadline-
which means immediate action is often required.
In short it is best to promptly
investigate and assert any claim which you think you may
have- and to obtain competent legal assistance immediately in determining any
filing deadlines which may apply.
Additional Information about swimming pool accident claims in Hawaii
Investigation
of a swimming pool accident claim
is very important to the outcome of the claims.
A timely investigation of all available evidence
related to the case may be critical.
Photos and videos of relevant conditions -the inside and the
outside of the pool, the surrounding conditions, the signs,
and any other dangers giving rise to the accident, the activities
being carried on in the area of the accident, etc., the area where the injuries and damages
were sustained and the injuries and damages themselves may prove invaluable in
proving up an accident claim to a claims adjuster, a judge or a jury. Photographic
or video documentation of the accident should be done as soon as possible.
We here at Accident Lawyer Hawaii generally provide a high level of this type of
assistance for cases in which we are retained.

In some jurisdictions, courts require a defense medical examiner to produce tax returns as a prerequisite to allowing the witness to testify against an injured claimant. See, eg, Noffke v. Perez, Sup. Ct. of Alaska No. S-12185, 2008 Westlaw 746972 (Alaska, March 21, 2008). This requirement exists because large amounts of income from insurance companies shown on the doctor's 1099's and tax returns shows a reason for bias. Unfortunately, the Hawaii courts and the LIRAB have consistently failed to provide even this minimal protection against often highly biased defense medical examiners purchased by insurance companies. A change of course is needed.
