Experience the Scott Callahan Difference

Mr. Callahan’s efforts to protect victims’ rights in state and federal courts include:

  • Serving on a national steering committee in litigation against the manufacturers and seller of a spray-on grout sealer that caused severe respiratory injuries and death to consumers.

  • Working to secure the nationwide recall of the harmful and defective product by the Consumer Product Safety Commission and co-counseling most of the victims in this national, multi-district product liability lawsuit.

Mr. Callahan earned his law degree from South Texas College of Law, where he was an Assistant Editor of the South Texas Law Review and received American Jurisprudence Awards in Admiralty and Environmental Law. After he began practicing law, he further honed his courtroom skills by graduating from the prestigious Trial Lawyers College founded by Gerry Spence. Only a very select few lawyers nationwide are admitted to attend Trial Lawyers College each year.

Mr. Callahan also frequently writes and speaks on a variety of legal issues affecting consumers and the general public, including personal injury.

Mr. Callahan is admitted to practice in all Texas state courts and the U.S. District Courts for the Southern, Northern, Eastern, and Western Districts of Texas.
