Not every truck running through the Permian Basin is a big interstate rig that has to hold onto six months of driver logs. Texas exempts purely intrastate commercial trucks under 26,001 pounds from that same record-keeping mandate. A lot of oilfield service trucks weigh in under that number, which can mean the company running it has no legal duty to save anything at all.

The onboard computer and dashcam run on a different clock. No six-month cushion there. Depending on the system, that footage and engine data can loop over anywhere from a few hours of continued driving to several weeks, and nothing forces the carrier to freeze it first.

What actually protects it is plain paperwork: a letter to the carrier naming the black box and dashcam, demanding both stay untouched until an expert can image them.

If that truck is already back on the road, call us: 210-340-5550.

Commercial insurers often move fast after a fatal truck wreck, calling grieving families with a settlement number before lost income or long-term care costs are ever calculated. That number reflects what the carrier wants to close the file. Not what your family will actually need years from now.

Texas law gives you two years from the date of your loved one's death to file a wrongful death lawsuit. Two years is not a countdown to answer the trucking company's insurer's first call. You are not required to accept that offer, or a second one, in the days right after the funeral.

Insurers frequently dispute future-care valuations, which is exactly why plaintiffs typically bring in life-care planners and vocational experts to show what the loss actually costs over a lifetime.

If the insurer has already called with a number, call us before you say yes to anything: 210-340-5550.

This client shared that we stepped in when it mattered most and gave them confidence during one of the hardest periods of their life. They felt treated with respect, had their questions answered, and knew someone was fighting for their best interests every step of the way.

When someone trusts us during a time that difficult, and then takes a moment to share that it made a difference, it really stays with us. Thank you for letting us walk through that with you.

If your family is facing something overwhelming after a serious accident, call 210-340-5550. We're here.

Someone told your family "his insurance will handle it" the day of the wreck, meaning the driver's own policy. That's rarely the full picture.

An 18-wheeler on the road answers to more than one company. There is a motor carrier, sometimes a separate owner-operator who owns the rig, and often a broker who booked the load. That's why a preservation letter after a serious crash typically goes to all three, not just the driver.

Commercial insurers frequently move fast with a number before your medical costs and future care are ever calculated. Settle with the wrong party, or settle too soon, and the companies that actually carry the weight walk away clean.

Save our number before you sign anything from an insurance company that isn't your own: 210-340-5550.

The truck that hit your family member may already be back on the road, hauling freight and logging new data over the old.

That truck's onboard computer recorded speed, braking, and engine data in the seconds before impact. If the truck stays in service, that black box data can typically be overwritten within days to weeks.

Federal law only requires the carrier to keep driver records of duty status and supporting documents for six months. The black box data on the truck's own computer isn't covered by that rule, and it doesn't pause for anyone.

What typically saves it is a preservation letter sent to the carrier, the owner-operator, and the broker, demanding they stop any routine data wipe before it starts. Experienced attorneys generally recommend this as the first move on a case like this, before the truck logs over what happened that day.

Before that evidence disappears for good, call us: 210-340-5550.

When you told us your team treated you like family, that really stayed with us.

Dealing with the aftermath of an injury is overwhelming enough without having to figure out rental cars, medical bills, and surgery recovery on your own. Knowing we could take some of that weight off your shoulders and help you focus on healing means everything.

Thank you for trusting us with your case and for sharing your experience. It's a reminder of why the details, every single one, matter so much.

Call us: 210-340-5550.

The compensation check clears, and somebody on the crew tells you to take it, that it's as good as it's going to get.

What shows up again and again is a first offer within days or weeks, smaller than the bills that keep coming in. That check is real. It's also not the whole story.

Texas workers' comp settles up with your employer. It doesn't touch pain and suffering, disfigurement, or what a serious injury does to your ability to earn a living going forward. If a contractor's negligence or a defective piece of equipment caused what happened to you, a separate claim against the contractor or manufacturer can still reach all of that, comp check or not. If your injury happened on a rig out in the Gulf, different federal rules apply instead.

Call us: 210-340-5550. There's usually more on the table than that first check lets on.

Your foreman asks what happened, writes it down, and calls it finished before the ambulance clears the gate.

That write-up becomes the incident report, the operator's first official account of what caused your injury. These records typically stay with the operator or contractor, sitting on a rig office desk or company server. Not with you.

Request your own copy in the days after. If that report gets intentionally altered later, Texas law allows a jury to infer that the original version contained information unfavorable to the company. Your attorney can also send a letter within days to the safety manager and rig supervisor, demanding they preserve the report, the logs, everything tied to that shift. That notice typically helps establish the company's duty to hold onto it under Texas law.

If you want a copy of that report before it changes, call us: 210-340-5550.
