Shaw Cowart LLP is an Austin, Texas law firm focused on personal injury, serious injury, and civil litigation. The firm represents individuals and families facing the physical, emotional, and financial challenges caused by accidents and life-changing injuries. Its practice areas include car and truck accidents, catastrophic injuries, wrongful death, workplace injuries, medical malpractice, defective products, premises liability, and other complex personal injury matters.

Founded by trial attorneys Ethan Shaw and John Cowart, Shaw Cowart LLP brings more than 60 years of combined trial experience. The founding partners have handled hundreds of trials across Texas and throughout the country, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. Their extensive courtroom experience allows the firm to approach each case with a strong understanding of litigation, negotiation, and trial strategy.

The firm places strong emphasis on personal attention and maintaining close relationships with its clients. Attorneys work directly with clients to understand their needs, goals, and the real-life effects of their legal challenges.
