About Carter & Associates
Austin's most trusted personal injury law firm for over 25 years.
A legacy of fighting for the injured.
James Carter founded Carter & Associates in 1998 after witnessing how insurance companies routinely undervalued injury claims. He believed that accident victims deserved aggressive, compassionate representation, and he built a firm to deliver exactly that.
Over 25 years later, Carter & Associates has recovered more than $200 million for injured Texans. Our team of 14 attorneys brings experience from both sides of the courtroom, including former insurance defense lawyers who know exactly how the other side operates.
We operate on a contingency fee basis, our clients never pay unless we win. This isn't just a billing model; it's a statement of confidence. We take cases because we believe in them, and we fight until justice is served.
