Law Firm Overview Free Consultation

The Law Offices of Tinsman & Sciano, Inc. is an experienced and dedicated firm based in San Antonio, Texas. Founded in 1970, we are a dedicated group of highly skilled attorneys and legal support professionals offering powerful representation on behalf of clients in south Texas and for certain types of cases — from across the United States as well.

Our lawyers have tried a significant number of cases and have obtained a number of multi-million dollar settlements and judgments for previous clients. Today, we are known for our aggressiveness in representing and protecting our clients' interests. We are accomplished and feared by insurance companies, corporate wrongdoers and their law firms.

In our practice, we advise and represent clients in a wide range of civil matters and litigation, including personal injury, defective products, burn injuries, automobile and trucking accidents, 18-wheeler litigation, stove tip-over litigation, and wrongful death. We also represent clients in the areas of oil and gas royalty or working interest disputes, commercial disputes, trusts and estates litigation and will contests.

With five attorneys and our highly trained legal support staff, we have served people throughout Texas for almost four decades. However, even as our firm has changed over the years, its business model has not.

We have not become a high-volume operation/settlement factory. We believe clients deserve our individual attention, that they should be kept as informed and involved in their cases as they want and that they should be able to get answers and information when they need it. We provide those things and give each case the detailed legal attention it deserves as well.

In most cases, our firm serves its clients on a contingency fee basis. The client pays no attorney’s fee unless we win or settle your case. We advance court costs and litigation expenses that are reimbursed at the end of your case provided that you obtain a recovery. Our investment in and dedication to a case is total. Every client has complete access to our vast legal and financial resources.
