With its port, refineries and interstates, Houston sees a lot of 18-wheeler traffic. A truck crash can involve the driver, carrier, broker, maintenance company and cargo loader, each with its own insurer, and federal safety rules apply to many of them. Electronic logs and vehicle data can disappear, so ask the firm how it preserves evidence.

Frequently asked questions

Who can be responsible for an 18-wheeler crash?

Potentially the driver, the carrier, the company that loaded the cargo, a maintenance contractor or a parts maker. Finding all of them matters, because more insurance may be available.

How long do I have to sue?

Generally 2 years for injuries and for wrongful death in Texas, per TexasLawHelp.

What evidence matters most?

Driver logs, electronic logging device data, event data from the truck, inspection and maintenance records, and dashcam video. A lawyer can demand that the company preserve them, so it helps to call early.
