It’s easy to blame the driver when a big rig is involved in a wreck, but the truth is usually much more complex. When trucking company management cuts corners in training, equipment and maintenance, the rest of us pay the price. We represent local families in the Eagle Ford region who have seen loved ones hurt by these dangerous vehicles. If you or someone you love has been killed or injured in an commercial truck wreck, call us today for professional insight.

When local governments want to increase tax revenues, they are required to publish notices in the newspaper so that you will know. But that right to know could disappear.

Local governmental entities across the state want to hide their public notices on little seen, rarely visited government websites.

What you don’t know will affect you personally!

If it is not in the newspaper, you won’t know about it.
