Drowning Accident
What started out as a nice day out on the water, with the family and friends quickly became your worst nightmare. One person's lack of care and outright disregard for safety has left you with traumatic injuries – or worse – caused the drowning of a loved one. You are now faced with the terrible questions that so often accompany these kinds of accidents:
- Who is responsible for this incident and can they be held responsible?
- How will I ever pay for all of these medical bills?
- What kind of legal options do I have available?
- Should I retain a lawyer?
No parent should be confronted with these kinds of questions after an outing to the pool or lake.

Keep in mind that time is of the essence in circumstances such as yours. While the last thing on your mind may be filing any type of legal proceedings, the sooner you take action, the greater your odds will be at completing a successful claim. There is one primary reason for this kind of necessary expediency. The state of Nebraska maintains a statute of limitations on all personal injury claims. This means that you have a small window of opportunity in which to file. Failing to do so can mean an immediate loss of rights and compensation. Additionally, evidence from water-based accidents must be gathered quickly in order to avoid losing it forever.
So, don't delay. Make the call to Cullan & Cullan LLC at your earliest convenience. Together we can secure the kind of compensation you need to overcome any immediate hurdles and offset any future obstacles.
