Undefeated Houston Truck and 18 Wheeler Injury Lawyers
Our Undefeated Houston Truck Accident Lawyers have won Billions for truck and 18 wheeler accident victims and consistently recovered the #1 Largest Verdicts and Settlements in History against the biggest trucking and transportation companies in the United States.
As a result of our success, trucking companies treat our clients and their cases more seriously, knowing that we won’t hesitate to take a case to trial, where our lawyers remain undefeated, unless they offer a settlement that fully compensates our clients and their families for all their injuries and losses.
We Hold Commercial Trucking Companies Accountable
Although every case is unique, our goal is always the same: to ensure that individuals who have been injured or tragically killed by someone else’s reckless or negligent conduct have the resources to care and provide for themselves and their families for the rest of their lives.
We achieve this goal by working harder, longer and smarter than our opponents, always being available to our clients, and devoting whatever time and resources are necessary to ensure that each and every one of our clients receives the maximum compensation possible for their injuries and losses.
This approach has not only distinguished our Truck Accident Lawyers as some of the Best in the Country, but, more importantly, it’s allowed our clients to care and provide for themselves, their children, and their families for the rest of their lives.

Truck Drivers Are Held to a Higher Standard than Other Drivers
Commercial truck drivers are expected to have more training and experience than ordinary drivers, which is why they are legally held to a higher standard of care. Trucking companies and their drivers are required to follow the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, as well as state and company safety laws and policies, designed to protect other drivers on the road.
In every case we’ve handled, however, we’ve discovered substantial violations of federal and state safety laws and violations that put other drivers and passengers on the road at extreme risk of serious injury or death.
Some of the most common violations involved in truck and 18 wheeler accidents include:
- Driving while fatigued
- Driving in excess of the maximum number of hours permitted by Federal law driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Violating state traffic laws
- Speeding
- Failing to maintain daily driver logs or “hours of service” records
Not only are trucking companies legally responsible for the negligence of their drivers, but they also face independent liability (separate from the negligence of their drivers) when they fail to:
- Perform driving record and background checks when hiring new drivers
- Properly train and supervise new and existing drivers
- Monitor drivers for traffic and regulatory violations
- Suspend or terminate drivers for crashes, traffic violations, and medical conditions that disqualify drivers from operating commercial vehicles
- Properly maintain and inspect their trucks
Damages That You can Recover in a Truck Accident Case
Since truck accident victims often suffer catastrophic injuries that can affect—and commonly jeopardize—their ability to work, care for their family, and provide for themselves in the future, our Truck Accident Lawyers refuse to negotiate settlements with the trucking company unless the settlement will fully compensate our clients for all their medical expenses, lost wages and other physical and economic damages and losses.
The damages that are typically recoverable in Truck and 18-Wheeler Accident cases include:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Past and future lost wages
- Past and future pain and suffering
- Past and future mental anguish
- Past and future physical impairment
- Past and future physical disfigurement
- Punitive damages when the truck driver or trucking company was grossly negligent
