Frequently Asked Questions
Success in a semi-truck injury lawsuit requires an immediate deep dive into technical data. To begin, we focus on securing black box data (the Engine Control Module) to understand speed and braking patterns at impact. We also audit Electronic Logging Device (ELD) data to identify logbook violations and hours of service (HOS) violations that indicate driver fatigue. Timing is critical to securing data about the accident.
All commercial carriers must adhere to FMCSA regulations and federal trucking regulations. If a crash occurs on the I-10 corridor freight artery or the I-35 NAFTA corridor, we investigate whether the company is guilty of negligent hiring and training. We look for patterns of non-compliance with federal safety standards that lead to preventable tragedies like a jackknife accident or a fatal underride collision.
While we handle truck accident cases statewide, we see a high concentration of high-stakes commercial vehicle accidents in Houston and Dallas. These metropolitan hubs, combined with the heavy industrial traffic in the Permian Basin, create high-risk environments for catastrophic collisions.
