"I’m attorney Michael Grossman. Welcome to my blog. As a Texas attorney practicing for 20 years, I have litigated all manner 18-wheeler and commercial vehicle accident cases, which has given me a unique perspective. I use this blog as a place to write opinion / editorial articles on a variety of topics that catch my interest and as a means of sharing news stories relevant to truck accidents. I think the overwhelming majority of people are unaware of just how common these types of accidents are and I hope this blog raises awareness to a rather serious public safety concern. If you’d like to learn more about me, my practice, or our associate attorneys, you can do so on my advertising website www.injuryrelief.com. However, this blog is simply a means for me to share my opinions, and I would encourage that anyone who is considering taking legal action to seek a consultation in the appropriate fashion."
