What You'll Pay

Carabin Shaw works exclusively on a contingency-fee basis for personal injury matters. There is no upfront cost, and the firm advances all case expenses (medical record retrieval, expert witness fees, depositions). The fee is a percentage of the recovery, scaling depending on whether the case settles pre-suit, in litigation, or proceeds through trial. You'll have a clear written engagement letter before any work begins.

What Clients Say

Auto Accident · San Antonio
★★★★★
“We are very glad we called Carabin Shaw after our accident. They handled everything with the insurance company, lined up the right doctors, and got us a result that paid for treatment and then some. We now recommend them to everyone.”
Client
Amanda G.
Truck Accident · I-10 Bexar County
★★★★★
“An 18-wheeler hit us. The carrier's insurance fought hard. Carabin Shaw didn't blink. The settlement covered my surgeries and lost income, and I never paid a dollar out of pocket.”

FAQ

Common Questions About This Firm

How much does it cost to hire Carabin Shaw?
Nothing up front. The firm works on contingency — you pay no attorney fee unless they recover money for you. Case expenses are advanced by the firm and reimbursed from the recovery.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Texas?
Texas generally allows two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. The practical clock is much shorter — evidence and witnesses disappear quickly. Call before you talk to any insurance adjuster.
Does Carabin Shaw handle cases outside San Antonio?
Yes. The firm is licensed in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Colorado, and takes cases statewide and across state lines when the matter involves trucking, oilfield, or interstate accidents.
Will I work with an attorney or just paralegals?
An attorney handles strategy and key milestones on every case. Day-to-day intake and case management are handled by experienced legal staff to keep the case moving and your costs reasonable.
What if I'm partly at fault for the accident?
Texas uses modified comparative fault. As long as you are 50% or less at fault, you can still recover — your award is reduced by your percentage of fault. Carabin Shaw will give you a candid liability read at the consultation.
