Harlingen, TX

A Law Firm with Roots in the Rio Grande Valley

The Harlingen, Brownsville, Port Isabel, San Benito, and South Padre Island region is home for Tomas A. Caquias. Raised in Brownsville, he has long-standing ties to the Rio Grande Valley and represents clients in cases involving car accidents, property accidents, on-premise injuries, and dangerous or defective products. As a personal injury attorney in Harlingen, he works with an extra-effort that focuses on maximum just results for Valley residents who need clear direction and compensation after an accident.

Early Healthcare Education

Tomas’s early education and career centered around healthcare. His father, Dr. Jesus Caquias, practiced both traditional medicine and integrative health at a time when those approaches were uncommon. The functional-medicine programs hospitals now adopt in 2025 were part of his father’s work more than three decades ago. His clinic was also the only one in the Rio Grande Valley operating a hyperbaric chamber, offering treatments not widely available in the region.

This environment shaped Tomas’s understanding of how injury, recovery, and long-term health intersect — an outlook that informs his work as a lawyer.

Why Tomas Pursued a Career as a Personal Injury Attorney

Tomas attended a medical-magnet high school and worked his way through college as a medical assistant, laboratory technician, and hyperbaric-chamber operator for autistic children, burn victims, and patients with chronic wounds.

While completing his science degree, he witnessed significant changes in the U.S. healthcare system. Many patients he worked with lost access to the care they relied on. Confronted with this, Tomas saw two paths:

Path 1: Become a physician and help individuals one at a time.

Path 2: Become an attorney and represent groups of people harmed by negligence or systemic failures.

So, Tomas attended law school and became a Texas personal injury attorney with a practice in San Antonio and in The Rio Grande Valley, serving clients across the Valley.
