Roman Austin Car Accident and Personal Injury Lawyers, a Clearwater-based law firm, has secured the No. 2,921 spot on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies. This marks the firm's second consecutive appearance on the prestigious ranking, a significant jump from its 2025 position at No. 3,822. The Inc. 5000, compiled annually by Inc. magazine, recognizes the fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States, providing a benchmark for entrepreneurial success.
The firm's back-to-back recognition underscores its consistent growth and reputation for trusted advocacy. Roman Austin exclusively handles personal injury cases, representing clients injured in car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, slip and fall incidents, and other serious injuries. The firm serves the Tampa Bay area, including Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, and Hernando counties, and has become one of the most recognized personal injury law firms in the region.
“We are honored to appear on the Inc. 5000 for the second consecutive year,” said Mark S. Roman, founding attorney. “This recognition reflects the trust our clients place in us during some of the most difficult moments of their lives, and our team's unwavering commitment to fighting for the compensation they deserve.”
Roman Austin's approach is deeply client-centered. Recognizing that a serious accident can alter a person's life instantly, the firm aims to provide more than just legal guidance. They offer responsive support and dedicated advocacy from the initial consultation through case resolution, addressing not only the legal complexities but also the financial, emotional, and daily disruptions clients face.
The legal team at Roman Austin is distinguished by its expertise. It includes a Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer, a distinction held by fewer than 2% of Florida attorneys, and two former insurance defense attorneys who bring insider knowledge of how carriers evaluate and dispute claims. This combination of experience provides the firm with a comprehensive understanding of the claims process, enabling them to craft informed strategies tailored to each client's case.
Clients seeking a trusted personal injury lawyer in Clearwater or the greater Tampa Bay area turn to Roman Austin for dedicated, personalized representation. The firm deliberately keeps caseloads manageable to ensure direct attorney attention.

The No. 2,921 ranking on the 2026 Inc. 5000 is a notable milestone, but for Roman Austin, the more meaningful measure is the clients they have helped along the way. The firm remains committed to being the best personal injury lawyer resource available to the injured.
