If you or a loved one suffered a serious injury in a crash with an 18-wheeler, you already know this is different than a car accident. The injuries are more severe. The recovery is longer. And the legal battle is exponentially more complex.
Attorney Sam Lee has spent years building cases against major insurance companies. He knows how to preserve critical evidence before it is “lost” including black box data that trucking companies are known to overwrite within days. He also knows how to calculate the true cost of a life-altering truck accident, including future medical care, lost earning capacity, and pain and suffering.

Types of Truck Accidents We Handle
Truck accidents come in many forms, and each type presents unique legal challenges. Our Houston truck accident attorneys have experience handling all types of commercial vehicle crashes, including:
-
18-Wheeler Accidents – Collisions involving large commercial rigs often cause catastrophic injuries due to the massive size and weight of these vehicles.
-
Semi-Truck Accidents – These crashes typically involve tractor-trailers hauling freight and often result in serious injuries or fatalities.
-
Tractor-Trailer Accidents – Similar to semi-truck crashes, these involve a truck cab pulling one or more trailers, making them difficult to maneuver and stop.
-
Delivery Truck Accidents – Accidents involving FedEx, UPS, Amazon, or other delivery vehicles often occur in residential and commercial areas.
-
Box Truck Accidents – Medium-sized trucks used for moving or local deliveries can still cause serious injuries in collisions with passenger vehicles.
-
Dump Truck Accidents – These heavy vehicles are prone to rollovers and can cause devastating damage in side-impact or rear-end collisions.
-
Tanker Truck Accidents – Hauling hazardous liquids or gases, tanker trucks pose additional risks such as fires, explosions, and chemical spills.
-
Tow Truck Accidents – Accidents involving tow trucks often occur on highways while assisting disabled vehicles, putting tow truck drivers and motorists at risk.
-
Flatbed Truck Accidents – Cargo can shift or fall from flatbed trailers, creating road hazards and causing multi-vehicle pileups.
-
Refrigerated Truck Accidents – Also known as “reefers,” these trucks carry perishable goods and are often driven long distances, increasing the risk of driver fatigue.
-
Jackknife Accidents – When a truck’s trailer swings out to form a 90-degree angle with the cab, it can cause devastating multi-car pileups on highways.
