Houston's port and energy industry generate one of the highest commercial-truck volumes in the U.S., with I-10, I-45 and I-69 funneling tractor-trailers, tankers and oilfield trucks daily. That volume is good for the local economy — and devastating for anyone caught in a tractor-trailer crash on one of these corridors. Cross & York represents people seriously injured in semi-truck collisions throughout the Houston metro, with deep familiarity with Texas law and the carriers that operate here.
