The oil and gas fields in and under West Texas have seen all too many busts and booms over past years. This cycle both makes and breaks the financial fortunes of those people trying to make a living near communities such as Odessa. Today, there is another boom, thanks to oil and gas fields such as the Yates Oil Field and the Spraberry Trend. With these new resources, our energy industry in West Texas is in another boom. This increase in economic activity in our Permian Basin has brought more vehicles, equipment and people into our area. This, in turn, brings a higher risk of on the job injuries.

At Carabin Shaw, we have represented injured Texans for more than 20 years. We combine direct personal service for you with the weight of resources you need get real results. This combination truly sets our firm apart from many others. We will always treat you and your family like they are our family. We always take the needed time to get to know each individual client, which helps us fulfill their needs.

Many hundreds of often drug impaired, inexperienced people are interacting and working with other people in the gas fields, refineries, oil fields, compressor stations and in other manufacturing and industrial companies related to the oil and gas business. When people like you get killed or injured because of the inaction or acts of another person or a company employee, Texas’ law provides that you should get just and fair compensation. Carabin Shaw is dedicated to helping you get the best chance at the maximum compensation that the law allows.

Many times, there are multiple parties working in, on and under any oil or gas field location where accidents occur. The roustabout crew, the drilling crew, the company man, a casing crew, the wireline services people might well all be working at one location or field area. When accidents do happen, it is always critical to figure out the role each of these possible parties played in causing any accident. It is equally important to figure out and know how to use the legal relationships that exist between such parties. “Master Service Agreements” frequently control insurance requirements and even effect liability. You really need an attorney who has sufficient experience handling multi-party, often complex, oil and gas field litigation. Carabin Shaw has that experience.

In the oil fields, accidents do happen. When they do, you deserve compensation if you have gotten injured. Carabin Shaw has many years of experience getting workers' compensation benefits, or tort damages when they are legally available, for our valued clients. These can including medical benefits and lost past and/or future wages and appropriate medical benefits.

If you can’t work, you and your family can always rely on our legal team to keep an eye out for your best interests. If any third party like a manufacturer of a defective piece of machinery or a truck driver is responsible for your injuries, we can and will always pursue any available personal injury claim against third parties that could compensate you for your medical costs, lost income and pain and suffering. Our Odessa, Texas accident lawyers will do everything the law allows to maximize your recovery.
