The Texas personal injury attorneys at Carabin Shaw, however, are ready to help you navigate the complex regulations that surround Laredo auto collisions.

Laredo may not be the first Texas city that people think of, especially between Austin, Dallas, and Houston. But Laredo in the #1 inland port along the U.S.-Mexico border, making it one of the most important, and busiest, ground transportation locations for goods in the country. With a population over 250,000, this makes for some incredibly congested highways and surface streets. The city even holds the most important truck crossing along the U.S.-Mexico border, International Bridge 4.

Each of these factors adds together, making a car accident in Laredo a potentially devastating experience both physically and emotionally.
