Truck Accident Attorney Houston Law Firm — $0 Fees Until We Win Promise
When a truck accident turns your life upside down, you need more than a lawyer who handles any case that walks through the door. You need a Houston truck accident attorney who knows this region — who understands that the same roads carrying your family also carry 80,000-pound 18-wheelers, Port of Houston drayage rigs, chemical tankers, and crude oil haulers, and who knows how to hold the companies behind those vehicles accountable.
That’s what our firm is. We are not a national brand. We are your Houston truck accident lawyers — born from this community, built for this market, and committed to fighting for the injured people of Harris County and the Texas Gulf Coast.
Call anytime — day or night
Zero upfront cost — ever
Against trucking companies and their insurers
An 80,000-pound truck doesn’t cause an inconvenience — it causes surgeries, lost careers, and years of recovery. The company that owns it will spend whatever it takes to minimize what you receive. Our job is to make sure that strategy fails, and that your family is made whole.
Erik F. Garza’s practice handles truck and commercial vehicle collisions exclusively. Not slip and falls. Not divorces. Not DWI defense. One area of law, studied relentlessly — because trucking litigation runs on federal regulations, electronic logging data, and corporate liability structures that a general practice attorney simply never learns. Depth beats breadth in this arena, and depth is what our clients get.
Erik F. Garza has spent his career on the fault line between corporations and the people they injure. He understands the phone call that comes at 2 a.m., the waiting room with no answers, and the adjuster who sounds sympathetic right up until the moment he makes an offer worth a fraction of what a life is worth.
He opened this firm on a simple premise: injured Houstonians should walk into a negotiation with the same firepower the carrier brings. A trucking company arrives with investigators, engineers, and a defense budget. His clients arrive with an attorney who has studied that exact playbook and knows where it breaks.
Erik earned his Juris Doctor from South Texas College of Law Houston. Before turning his focus to injured plaintiffs, he spent close to a decade working within the legal frameworks that energy and transportation corporations use to distribute risk, structure contractor agreements, and shield themselves from liability when something goes wrong. He learned those systems from the inside. Today he dismantles them from the outside, on behalf of the people they were designed to keep out.
Drayage containers out of Barbours Cut. Hazmat loads crossing the Ship Channel. Reefer units on the 610 Loop. Every corridor in this city carries a different kind of risk, and we’ve litigated against the operators who run them.
Black box data can be overwritten. Driver logs get archived. Dashcam files disappear. Within days of taking your case, we issue preservation demands and lock down the electronic record before anyone has a chance to lose it.
Hours-of-service violations. Incomplete CDL qualification files. Improperly secured cargo. Skipped maintenance inspections. These aren’t technicalities — they’re the documented proof of negligence that turns a disputed claim into a settled one.
Nothing at signing. Nothing while the case is pending. We are paid a percentage only if we recover money for you. If the case doesn’t succeed, you walk away owing this firm nothing at all.
We try cases in Harris County. We know the courthouse, the docket rhythms, and the intersections and feeder ramps where these wrecks keep happening. Local knowledge isn’t a marketing line here — it’s how we build the file.
Nights, weekends, holidays. Call and you’ll reach a person who can talk about your case, not a voicemail box. Free, confidential, and with no obligation to hire us.
