Two vehicles hit him. One of the drivers stopped. The other drove away and left him there. You are standing in the worst moment your family has ever faced, and the questions are already piling on top of the grief: Who was the person who fled? Will they ever be found?

Two People Are Dead After a Driver Ran a Stop Sign at Treva and Greenlee in Odessa — Here Is What the Law Says and What Your Family Needs to Do Right Now If you are reading this because someone you love was killed at the intersection of Treva Avenue and Greenlee Avenue on the evening of April 8, 2026, we want you to hear this first: your loved ones did nothing wrong. The Texas Department of Public Safety has already confirmed the cause. An Acura TL was traveling westbound on Treva Avenue, where it had the right-of-way, when a Mitsubishi Outlander traveling southbound on Greenlee Avenue disregarded a stop sign and crashed into it. The Acura’s driver and passenger — two people who were simply crossing an intersection they had every legal right to cross — were pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Mitsubishi walked away with minor injuries and was taken to Medical Center Hospital in Odessa. That asymmetry — two people dead, the at-fault driver treated and released — tells you something about the physics of this crash that matters to the case. We will get to that. But right now, the thing you…

Texas H2S Gas Exposure from Oil and Gas Wells: Your Legal Rights When the Air Around Your Home Is Poisoned You looked up your address on the map, and a colored dot sat on top of your home — or your child’s school. The headaches that have been coming for months, the nausea you could never explain, the dizziness your wife mentioned at dinner last week. You are reading this at 2 a.m. because the connection just clicked, and you want to know whether the invisible gas seeping from that well a quarter-mile away is what has been making your family sick. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We are a Texas trial firm, and this page is written for one person: you, sitting in your kitchen in the dark, trying to understand what hydrogen sulfide is, what it does to a human body, and whether the law gives you any power against the company that put a poison well next to your house and the state agency that never bothered to tell you. Everything that follows is the work product of our trial team — the law, the medicine, the regulatory failures, the evidence we would…

Midland Targa Gas Release — When the Silence Was the Harm You smelled something. Or maybe you didn’t — and that’s the part that frightens you most. Maybe your children were playing in the yard that afternoon, or you were at work inside a building a half-mile from the plant, and the air carried something you couldn’t see. Maybe you felt the headache, the nausea, the burning in your throat, and you told yourself it was the West Texas dust or the heat. Maybe you only learned later — from a neighbor, from a news alert, from a state regulator’s announcement — that a significant gas release had happened at a Targa Resources facility near your home, and that the company had not reported it promptly. That delay is not a paperwork technicality. It is the reason you were still breathing that air when you should have been told to leave. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We handle toxic tort and industrial disaster cases across Texas, including the Permian Basin. Ralph Manginello has spent 27-plus years in Texas courtrooms, including federal court.

Fatal Midland County Motorcycle Crash: Wrong-Way Driver Without Headlights Kills Odessa Man If you are reading this because someone you love was killed on Fairgrounds Road on the night of May 29, we want you to hear this first: the reported facts say he was doing everything right. He was in his lane. He was wearing a helmet. He was riding a motorcycle he had chosen, on a road he knew, in the direction he was supposed to be going. And a car came across the center line in the dark with its lights off and took his life. That is not an accident. That is a chain of choices someone else made, and Texas law gives the family the right to hold every person and every policy that contributed to those choices accountable. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We handle motorcycle accident cases and wrongful death claims across Texas. This page is not a sales pitch. It is a full, honest explanation of what happened on that road, what the law allows your family to recover, what evidence is dying right now while the investigation is still open, and what the insurance company is already…

Orthodontic Wire Migrated From a Boy’s Mouth Into His Brain After His Pain Was Dismissed in Odessa, Ector County, TX, Air-Ambulanced 140 Miles for Neurosurgery: Dental Malpractice Attorneys at Attorney911, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, We Preserve the Surgically Removed Wire, CT Imaging and Treatment Records Before the 120-Day Expert Report Deadline Under Texas Medical Liability Law, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider, TBI ($5M+ Recovered), Products Liability Against the Wire Manufacturer That Can Bypass Texas Medical Liability Damage Caps, Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

When the Orthodontist Said Everything Was Fine — and a Wire Was Burrowing Into Your Child’s Brain You took your child to get his braces adjusted. A dental technician did the work. Your son said his cheek hurt, said something was poking him. The orthodontist told you everything was fine. You trusted that. Parents trust that. Then the swelling started. The headaches. The nausea. You watched your child change over weeks — and nobody connected it to the wire until the morning he woke up unable to speak clearly, vomiting, and an urgent care clinic sent him straight to the hospital. A CT scan showed what no parent is ever prepared to see: a long segment of orthodontic wire extending from your child’s oral cavity into the middle cranial fossa — the compartment of the skull that holds the temporal lobes and the pituitary gland. Your child had a penetrating brain injury. An intraparenchymal hemorrhage. A seizure disorder. And he was intubated and flown 140 miles northeast to the Level I trauma center at University Medical Center in Lubbock for emergency neurosurgery, because the hospital in Odessa could not handle what was inside his head. That is the moment you…

Hydrogen Sulfide Killed Two People at an Odessa Oil Facility — What Their Families Need to Know The Permian Basin runs on sour gas. The crude that comes up from the wells around Odessa carries hydrogen sulfide — a poison so fast and so quiet that a man can walk out to check a pump and never walk back. And when his wife comes looking for him, she does not walk back either. That is not a freak accident. That is the exact pattern hydrogen sulfide has followed in the oilfield for decades, and the companies that run these facilities know it down to their bones. Two people died that way in Odessa on October 26, 2019. An oilfield worker went to check a pump at a company facility and was overcome by H2S. His wife came looking for him when he stopped answering his phone. She was overcome too. Both of them died at the facility. Now, more than five years later, two West Texas companies and a company executive have been criminally convicted for it. The operator and a service company were ordered to pay a combined $1.4 million in criminal fines. The executive was sentenced to five…

Ector County H2S Gas Deaths: When an Oilfield Pump House Becomes a Killing Field The phone call comes at night. Or the silence comes — the phone that doesn’t ring, the text that doesn’t get answered, the drive out to the site because something felt wrong. That is how these stories begin in the Permian Basin. A husband is sent to check a pump house on a Saturday night. He doesn’t come back. His wife goes looking for him. She doesn’t come back either. And the children — the ones who stayed in the truck, who didn’t know yet that the invisible gas outside had already taken everything — they are the ones left to tell what happened. If you are reading this because someone you love was killed by hydrogen sulfide at an oilfield site in Ector County or anywhere in the Permian Basin, we want you to understand one thing before anything else: what happened was not an accident in the way the company will try to frame it. H2S deaths in oilfield operations are the foreseeable result of failures in training, monitoring, and safety systems that the industry has known how to prevent for decades. The law…

Dram Shop Liability & Catastrophic Drunk-Driving Injury: A Drunk Driver Served 19 Drinks at an Odessa Golf-Course Bar, So Intoxicated He Could Not Distinguish Red From Green, Loses Control of His Pickup on Andrews Highway and Leaves Isaac Sanchez, a 32-Year-Old Motorcyclist, Quadriplegic — Attorney911 Pursues the Establishments and Their Insurers Under Texas Dram Shop Law in Ector County, Where the Safe-Harbor Defense Collapses Without TABC-Certified Servers, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Avvo-Rated Excellent, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider, We Pull the Point-of-Sale Drink Records, TABC Certification Histories and Bar Surveillance Footage Before the Overwrite Cycle Destroys Them, the Firm Has Recovered $50M+ for Catastrophic Injury Victims — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

Odessa Jury Awards $262.5 Million — When a Bar Chooses Profit Over Safety, Texas Law Holds Both the Drunk Driver and the Bar That Overserved Him Accountable If you are reading this because someone you love was hurt by a drunk driver in Odessa — or anywhere in the Permian Basin — you already know the feeling. The anger. The confusion. The questions that come at 2 a.m. when the hospital room is quiet and the bills are starting to pile up and nobody from the insurance company has called you back yet. You know the drunk driver is responsible. What you may not know is that under Texas law, the bar that kept pouring drinks into a person who could barely stand can be held responsible too — for a significant share of what your family has lost. An Ector County jury just told this community exactly that. On June 3, 2021, a 32-year-old Odessa man named Isaac Sanchez was stopped on his Harley-Davidson at the red light where Andrews Highway meets Yukon Road, waiting his turn like every other person on that road. Behind him was a drunk driver who had been served approximately 19 alcoholic drinks over…

Birth-Injury & Cerebral Palsy from a Delayed C-Section at Odessa Regional Medical Center in Ector County: Baby Adalynn Born with Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy After Hours of Ignored Severe Pain, a Missed C-Section, Uterine Rupture, and a Destroyed Fetal Heart Tracing — Attorney911 Pursues the Hospital Systems and Corporate Parents Behind the Standard-of-Care Breach, Ralph Manginello’s 27+ Years of Federal-Court Trial Practice, Lupe Peña the Former Insurance-Defense Insider Who Knows How the Claims Machine Values and Denies Birth-Injury Cases, We Move to Preserve the Chart, the Imaging and the EHR Audit Trails Before They Are Amended, Brain-Injury ($5M+ Recovered) to Lifelong-Care Catastrophic Claims, Texas Medical-Malpractice Law and the Spoliation Doctrine in Plain Language, the Records-Preservation Clock Is Running — Free 24/7 Consultation, No Fee Unless We Win, Hablamos Español, 1-888-ATTY-911

When a Hospital in Odessa Fails a Laboring Mother: Birth Injury, HIE, and the Law That Follows If you are reading this at two in the morning, sitting next to a crib your child may never climb out of, we need you to hear something first: what happened to your baby was not a complication. It was a cascade of preventable failures, and the fact that you are searching for answers means you already know that. You may have been told that uterine rupture is a “known risk” of prior C-sections. That is a true sentence used to cover up a false story. The truth is that the standard of care exists precisely to prevent that risk from becoming a catastrophe — and when a hospital in Odessa or Midland ignores that standard for hours, the brain damage that follows is not an act of God. It is a medical mistake measured in minutes, and the law gives your family a path to hold the people responsible for it. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We handle catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases in Texas, including birth injury and medical malpractice claims. We are writing this page as…
