A focused law practice for serious swimming pool injuries.
We represent people who have been seriously injured in swimming pool and aquatic accidents. Our practice is dedicated to pool-related injury cases—nothing else.
When a pool injury changes a life, experience and specialization make a difference.
Pool injuries are not limited to “slip and fall” accidents. Many involve design defects, missing safety features, poor supervision, or violations of pool safety standards. These cases can arise at homes, apartment complexes, hotels, resorts, short-term rentals, schools, and public facilities.
What Counts as a Pool Injury Case?
If a pool environment played a role in the injury, it may be worth investigating.

A Practice Built Around Accountability
Pool injury cases require careful investigation and a deep understanding of how pools are designed, operated, and maintained. We work with engineers, safety experts, and medical professionals to understand what went wrong, why it happened, and whether it could have been prevented.
The Pool Lawyer was created by partners Toby Cole and Mary Allen Ramprasad to bring focused attention to a category of injuries that is often minimized or misunderstood. Together, we represent clients with life-altering injuries and approach every case with care, preparation, and respect.
Our goal is not volume. It is accountability and clarity, so families can understand their options and make informed decisions at every stage.
What Clients Say
Families come to us during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. Their experiences reflect what we strive for: clear communication, personal attention, and steady advocacy from start to finish.
Toby cared about my son and our family on a personal level. His team was always responsive, kind, and available. We trusted him completely, and the outcome reflected that trust.
