Interstate freight traffic never stops moving through Mont Belvieu, Dayton, and Liberty County. With major corridors like Highway 146, FM 565, and I-10 East connecting refineries, storage terminals, and the Houston Ship Channel, the risk of catastrophic 18-wheeler and freight-route collisions is high.
At Gilman & Allison, LLP, we represent victims of truck and commercial-vehicle accidents throughout East Texas and the Gulf Coast. Our attorneys — former maritime officers with decades of industrial-injury experience — understand how port logistics, refinery deliveries, and interstate shipping create dangerous conditions on rural roads and crowded freight corridors.
When truck drivers or logistics companies cut corners, we make them answer for it.
Common Causes of Freight-Route Truck Accidents
Driver fatigue and hours-of-service violations
Unsafe merging on two-lane rural highways
Overloaded or improperly secured cargo leaving Mont Belvieu terminals
Brake or tire failure due to poor maintenance
Distracted or impaired commercial drivers
Negligent dispatchers rushing delivery schedules
Our team quickly investigates the scene, securing dash-cam footage, ECM downloads, weigh-station records, and driver logs before the trucking company destroys evidence. We work with accident-reconstruction experts and mechanical engineers to expose the truth and hold every negligent party accountable.
What Victims Can Recover
Medical bills and rehabilitation costs
Lost wages and future earning losses
Pain, suffering, and mental anguish
Property damage and vehicle replacement
Punitive damages for reckless or gross negligence
Texas Trial Lawyers with Maritime & Industrial Expertise
Mont Belvieu sits at the intersection of Texas’s energy infrastructure and maritime freight routes — where refinery haulers, chemical tankers, and container trucks share the same highways as local residents. Gilman & Allison, LLP brings the technical background to handle cases involving hazardous-material transport, refinery supply fleets, and port logistics carriers.
We’re not just personal-injury attorneys — our team includes U.S. Merchant Marine-licensed professionals who’ve worked on the same docks and terminals where these trucks load and unload. That real-world experience helps us understand the chain of responsibility: from the shipper and terminal operator to the carrier and driver.
