Midland-Odessa Personal Injury Attorneys Fighting for Maximum Compensation

When life takes an unexpected turn due to someone else’s negligence, the aftermath can be overwhelming. Medical bills pile up, lost wages create financial strain, and the physical and emotional pain can feel insurmountable. In Midland-Odessa, accident victims don’t have to face these challenges alone. At Carabin Shaw, our dedicated personal injury attorneys are committed to fighting relentlessly for the maximum compensation our clients deserve.

Understanding Your Rights in the Permian Basin

The oil-rich Permian Basin region, encompassing Midland and Odessa, presents unique challenges for personal injury cases. With heavy industrial activity, increased truck traffic on highways like I-20, and bustling construction sites, accidents are unfortunately common. Our experienced personal injury legal team understands the specific risks and regulations that govern this region, giving us a strategic advantage when building your case.

Personal injury law in Texas operates under a modified comparative negligence system, meaning you can still recover damages even if you’re partially at fault for an accident. However, if you’re found more than 50% responsible, you may be barred from recovery. This makes having skilled legal representation crucial to protecting your interests and maximizing your compensation.

The True Cost of Personal Injuries

Many accident victims underestimate the full extent of their damages, often accepting quick settlement offers that fall far short of covering their actual losses. At Carabin Shaw, we conduct thorough investigations to identify all potential sources of compensation, including:

Economic Damages: These quantifiable losses include medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and future medical care costs. In cases involving severe injuries like traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord damage, future care costs can reach into the millions.

Non-Economic Damages: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium represent the human cost of an accident. While harder to calculate, these damages are equally important and often constitute the largest portion of a settlement.

Punitive Damages: In cases involving gross negligence or intentional misconduct, Texas law allows for punitive damages designed to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Personal Injury Cases

At Carabin Shaw, we believe that maximum compensation requires maximum effort. Our approach begins the moment you contact us:

Immediate Action: We move quickly to preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and secure expert testimony before crucial details are lost or forgotten. In trucking accidents, for example, we ensure that electronic logging devices and maintenance records are preserved before they’re destroyed.

Medical Partnership: We work closely with top medical professionals to ensure you receive the best possible care while building a strong foundation for your claim. Our relationships with specialists throughout Texas help us connect clients with the right doctors and establish the full extent of their injuries.

Investigative Excellence: Our legal team includes former insurance company lawyers who understand how insurers evaluate claims. We use this insider knowledge to build cases that insurers take seriously from day one.

Trial Preparation: While many cases settle out of court, insurance companies offer higher settlements when they know we’re prepared to take your case to trial. Our courtroom success rate speaks for itself.
