Houston 18-Wheeler & Trucking Accident Attorneys

Big rigs. Bigger stakes. We move fast to lock down evidence.

Why this case matters in Houston

Houston is one of the busiest freight corridors in the country — I-10, I-45, US-59, and the Port of Houston all funnel commercial trucks through our neighborhoods. When an 80,000-lb rig hits a passenger car, the injuries are catastrophic and the trucking company's insurers move fast. We move faster: spoliation letters go out within hours to preserve ELD logs, dashcam video, and maintenance records.

Common causes we investigate

Driver fatigue / HOS violations

Falsified logs, missed rest breaks, and overnight runs to the Port.

Improper cargo loading

Shifting or overweight loads causing rollovers on curves and ramps.

Poor maintenance

Brake failures, blown tires, and mechanical neglect.

Inadequate training

New CDL drivers navigating Houston's complex freeway system.

Damages we pursue

  • Catastrophic injury care and rehabilitation
  • Long-term medical and life-care planning
  • Lost income and future earning capacity
  • Loss of consortium and quality of life
  • Punitive damages for gross negligence

Questions we get asked

Who can be held liable in a truck accident?+

The driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, the maintenance provider, and sometimes the manufacturer — we identify every liable party.

Why do I need to act fast?+

Federal law only requires trucking companies to keep some records for six months. Evidence is destroyed on a schedule unless we send a preservation letter.
