Paul Catania | May 18, 2022 | Personal Injury
Paul Catania and Peter Catania founded Catania & Catania Injury Lawyers in 1992. For more than 30 years, the firm has grown in size and reputation. But the most significant accomplishment has been the opportunity to help thousands of accident victims throughout the Tampa Bay area recover over $500 million in compensation.
In honor of the firm’s 30th anniversary, our personal injury lawyers look back at the firm’s history, honors, and achievements.
Firm Growth Across the Tampa Bay Area
Catania & Catania Injury Lawyers was founded by brothers Paul and Peter Catania. Both were just a few years out of law school.
Peter Catania began his career in 1990 with an insurance defense firm. He used this time to learn how insurers approach injury cases and has used that knowledge and insight to help his injured clients recover the compensation they deserve.
Peter and Paul started Catania & Catania Injury Lawyers with a mission to ensure that all accident victims have access to high-quality legal representation. The insurance companies had elite lawyers on their side. Catania & Catania was founded so that accident victims could have elite lawyers on their side, too.
Since its founding, the firm has grown to a team of attorneys with over 120 years of combined experience. They come from a wide range of backgrounds, but they are all dedicated to the mission of advocating for the rights of accident victims to receive fair compensation for their injuries.
The firm has also expanded its geographic reach, with five offices across west-central Florida. For over three decades, Catania & Catania has represented injury victims throughout the Tampa Bay area. We have offices in Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Sarasota, and Bradenton, allowing our attorneys to provide experienced, accessible legal representation to clients across Florida.
Firm Achievements in Personal Injury Law
For more than 30 years, Catania & Catania has represented thousands of accident victims. Whether they needed help getting a fair settlement or presenting their case to a jury, we provided personalized service to each one.
The lawyers at Catania & Catania are seasoned litigators and prepare each client’s case as if it will go to trial. This strategy has ensured that formidable opponents know that the firm believes in its cases and will bring them before a jury if necessary.
As a result of this aggressive representation, we have recovered over $500 million in compensation for our clients.
Some of the firm’s largest outcomes include:
- $6,000,000 in a medical malpractice case
- $4,600,000 in a wrongful death case
- $3,000,000 in an auto accident case

These results have earned the firm a winning reputation in the community.
