CHICAGO — A woman is suing  Help at Home LLC, an employee of Help at Home, Bay Colony Condominium Owner's Association and a lifeguard, alleging the defendants failed to take measures to prevent her grandfather, Genrikh Mayboroda, from drowning in a swimming pool. 

Genia Yovankin, the administrator of Mayboroda's estate, filed a lawsuit on March 3 in Cook County Circuit Court against the defendants alleging they failed to properly supervise Mayboroda in the condominium's swimming pool, rescue him or administer first aid.

According to the complaint, a Help at Home employee allegedly took Mayboroda to a condominium owned by the Bay Colony Condominium Owner's Association on June 10, 2016, where he subsequently drowned in a swimming pool. The plaintiff holds the defendants responsible for allegedly failing to provide adequate supervision to individuals using their swimming pool.

The plaintiff is seeking judgment against the defendant in an amount greater than $30,000, plus court costs. She is represented by Steven M. Dicker of Dicker and Dicker in Chicago.
