Proven Advocacy for Victims of Swimming, Diving and Drowning Accidents in Fort Worth, TX

Many Texas homeowners have swimming pools on their property. Neighborhoods throughout Dallas-Fort Worth have community pools that are popular attractions for children and adults alike. Pools are a common amenity in hundreds of hotels and condos in the area. People in our region enjoy swimming and diving every day, but unfortunately, injuries are all too common.

At The Law Offices of J. Kent McAfee, P.C., we have over 34 years of experience handling personal injury cases, and we know how devastating it is when someone is injured in a swimming pool accident. Whether a pool is public or private, the owner has a responsibility to make sure that certain aspects of the pool or swimming area are kept safe and that swimmers follow the rules for the pool or recreational area. Children and other swimmers must be kept safe. Unsafe activities such as running and horseplay must be prevented. Many pools are appropriate for swimming, but not diving, even when a diving board is present. It is a known fact within the legal and pool industries that the proper depth must be present for an individual to safely dive. Most residential pools, despite having diving boards, are NOT safe for diving, based on the depth and design. If an owner or the contractor who built the pool has failed to live up to that responsibility and has caused an injury to you or your child, we will work hard to hold him or her accountable.
