The ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are the largest container complex in North America. Tractor-trailer drayage feeds I-710, I-110, I-5 and I-10 around the clock. 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 Los Angeles metro, with deep familiarity with California law and the carriers that operate here.
