San Antonio Dog Bite Lawyers
The state of Texas is a leader in dog bite injury fatalities. Of the 25-40 dog bite fatalities that occur in the United States every year, a significant percentage occur in our home state. Between 2005 and 2013, 34 Texans were killed as a result of a dog attack. The vast majority of dog bite fatalities in the city of San Antonio are children under five and the elderly.
Many dog bite victims are not killed during the attack but may suffer long-term scarring, infection, nerve damage, or other traumas from their injuries. These long-lasting effects of San Antonio dog bites can alter a person’s quality of life, leaving them with years of suffering solely because of a dog owner’s moment of negligence.

What Is a “Contingent-Fee Contract”?The dog bite injury lawyers of Carabin Shaw offer all our clients contingent-fee contracts. This means that your attorney’s compensation is contingent upon the amount of your final settlement. The higher the settlement your attorney is able to negotiate for you, the more they will be compensated (since your attorney’s legal fees will be paid as a portion of your financial settlement, not an up-front cost).
Contingent-fee contracts benefit dog bite victims and their families in two ways:
- Because you are not required to pay up-front legal fees, you can pursue your right to fair compensation without worry of incurring expensive legal fees.
- Your attorney is motivated to do their absolute best in settlement negotiations, both because we believe that accident victims like you have a right to a fair settlement and because our attorneys’ legal fees depend on their performance.
When you hire a Carabin Shaw injury lawyer, it is guaranteed: you don’t pay unless we win. No amount of financial insecurity should stand in the way of dog bite injury victims like you taking advantage of their legal rights.
