When an 18-wheeler causes a collision, the results are often catastrophic. CDF Law fights against commercial trucking companies and their insurers to recover full compensation for injured victims in Houston and across Texas.
Federal Trucking Regulations Apply
Commercial truckers are regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Violations of Hours of Service rules, weight limits, or inspection requirements can establish negligence per se — liability without needing to prove a specific error.
High Insurance Limits Mean Higher Stakes
Commercial carriers are required to carry a minimum of $750,000 in liability insurance — many carry $1M to $5M. These high limits make thorough legal representation essential to secure full recovery.
