Is the water making my family sick? How long has this been going on? The City got $8.7 million in settlement money — does any of that come to us? Should I be testing my blood? Should I be worried about the kidney cancer in my family, the thyroid condition, the high cholesterol that never made sense?

Texas PFAS Forever Chemicals in Your Drinking Water: What the Contamination Means for Your Health and Your Legal Rights You are reading this because something about your tap water has been eating at you. Maybe you saw the news that dozens of Texas water systems tested above what the federal government considers safe for “forever chemicals.” Maybe you have kidney cancer, or thyroid disease, or years of infertility, and a doctor or a friend or a late-night search finally connected the dots between what is in your water and what is in your body. Maybe you live in Dallas and the utility told you everything is fine — and you do not believe them, or you believe them and still want to know what was in the water before they started saying that. Maybe you are in Fort Worth, where the city is designing a treatment plant it will not finish until 2029, and you want to know what you are drinking between now and then. We are going to tell you everything we know about PFAS contamination in Texas drinking water — what the science says, what the law says, who is responsible, what your case could be worth,…

Troy, TX I-35 Fatal Truck Crash: When a Distracted J.B. Hunt Driver Killed a Disabled Motorist If you are reading this page, someone you love was taken from you on Interstate 35. Maybe it was your wife, your mother, your grandmother — a woman who had just bought land and was planning the retirement years she and her husband had earned.

We are going to answer every one of those questions on this page. Not in generalities — specifically, for what happened on I-35 northbound in Troy, Bell County, Texas, before dawn on May 22, 2024, when a J.B.

The Crash on I-20 Near Odessa, Texas: A Family Destroyed in Black Ice If you are reading this because a commercial truck hit your family on Interstate 20 — or because someone you love didn’t come home from the Permian Basin — you already know what black ice does. It turns a road that looks merely wet into something that steals traction without warning. You know the sound, or the silence, of a vehicle that is no longer answering its driver. You know what the tow yard looks like at dawn. And you may already know that the trucking company’s insurance adjuster called before the funeral. We are the trial team at Attorney911, The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We handle commercial truck crash cases in Texas — the 18-wheelers, the tanker rigs, the linehaul freight that moves through the Permian Basin on Interstate 20 and the corridors that feed it.

What Happened on I-20 — and Why a $90 Million Verdict Was Not the End of the Story If you are reading this, someone you love was hurt or killed in a crash with a commercial truck on a Texas interstate, and the company whose name was on the trailer is already telling you it was not their fault. You are in the hardest hours of your life — and you are up against a machine that started building its defense before the ambulance reached your family. We want you to know three things before anything else. First: a jury in Texas once awarded approximately $90 million to a family destroyed by a Werner Enterprises student driver on icy I-20 — a seven-year-old killed, a twelve-year-old left quadriplegic from a traumatic brain injury, and two more family members with extensive brain damage. That verdict was real. Twelve people heard the evidence and returned a number that reflected the scale of the loss. Second: the Texas Supreme Court reversed that verdict. In June 2025, the court held that the Werner driver’s presence on the road, even at a speed the jury found excessive for the conditions, “merely furnished the condition” that…

The Werner Enterprises Verdict, the Nuclear-Verdicts Debate, and What They Mean for Your Family After an Odessa Truck Crash If you are reading this at a kitchen table in Odessa, or Midland, or anywhere along the Interstate 20 corridor that cuts through the Permian Basin, you already know what a commercial truck does to a passenger vehicle when something goes wrong on this stretch of highway. You may have seen it. You may have lived through it.

Odessa, Texas: The Werner Enterprises Winter Storm Truck Crash on I-20 — FMCSA 392.14, Corporate Safety Failures, and the $92M Verdict That Was Reversed If you are reading this because someone you love was hurt or killed in a commercial truck crash on I-20 — or on any highway in the Permian Basin during a winter storm — you are probably sitting with a folder of papers you do not understand, a phone full of missed calls from an insurance adjuster who sounds sympathetic and is not, and a grief that has not yet found its shape.
