Commercial Vehicle Accidents

Hit by a commercial vehicle in Houston? Leatherwood Law holds businesses and drivers accountable.

Houston commercial vehicle accident lawyer Hogan Leatherwood

Accidents involving commercial vehicles—like delivery trucks, utility vans, construction vehicles, and box trucks—are often more severe than a typical car crash. These vehicles are larger, heavier, and often operated under tight schedules that encourage risky driving.

At Leatherwood Law, we help victims of commercial vehicle accidents recover full compensation for their injuries. Whether the driver was working for Amazon, FedEx, a contractor, or a local business, we’ll investigate the company’s policies, training, and maintenance practices to build a strong case.

These cases often involve corporate insurance policies, multiple parties, and aggressive defense tactics. We know how to cut through the red tape and fight for what you’re owed.

If you’ve been injured by a negligent commercial driver, you don’t have to take on the company alone.

Common Types of Commercial Vehicle Accidents

  • Delivery truck crashes (Amazon, UPS, FedEx)
  • Utility and service vehicle collisions
  • Box trucks and work vans
  • Landscaping, plumbing, or construction fleet vehicles
  • Hazardous material or fuel transport accidents
  • 18-wheeler and trucking accidents

What Compensation Can You Recover?

If your injury was caused by a commercial driver or company negligence, we’ll fight to recover:

  • Emergency medical treatment and hospitalization
  • Ongoing care, rehab, or surgery
  • Lost wages and reduced future income
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
  • Vehicle damage or total loss
  • Wrongful death damages (if a loved one was lost)

Why Hire Leatherwood Law for a Commercial Vehicle Case?

  • We know how companies cut corners: From driver fatigue to poor maintenance—we know what to look for.
  • Corporate insurance experience: We take on big insurers and trucking defense firms—and win.
  • Houston-focused: We serve crash victims across Houston, Harris County, and beyond.
  • No win, no fee: We only get paid if we recover money for you.

What to Do After a Commercial Vehicle Accident

  1. Call the police and get a report – This is crucial for proving fault and documenting the driver’s company info.
  2. Seek medical attention immediately – Injuries from heavy-vehicle collisions can be severe and delayed.
  3. Take photos and collect info – Get images of all vehicles, commercial logos, licenses, and scene details.
  4. Call Leatherwood Law – Before speaking with the company’s insurance adjuster or signing anything.
