Trucking

We defend motor carriers, trucking companies, drivers, and insurers in a wide range of transportation-related claims and regulatory matters. Our attorneys have extensive experience handling catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases, cargo and freight claims, property damage disputes, and regulatory compliance issues involving both interstate and intrastate operations.

We routinely defend clients in claims arising from trucking accidents, including multi-vehicle collisions, underride accidents, jackknife incidents, pedestrian impacts, and accidents involving hazardous materials and eighteen-wheelers. These cases often involve significant personal injury, property damage, or fatality claims, requiring a strong understanding of federal and state transportation regulations, driver qualification and training standards, hours-of-service rules, equipment maintenance requirements, and compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as well as various state departments of transportation.

Our team is experienced in rapid response coordination following serious accidents, ensuring that critical evidence is preserved and early investigations are conducted to protect our clients’ interests. We work closely with accident reconstruction experts, engineers, and medical professionals to build strong, evidence-based defenses. In addition to liability defense, we handle insurance coverage disputes arising from transportation claims, including issues involving the applicability and scope of coverage under MCS-90 endorsements.

We also advise clients on regulatory compliance, safety audits, risk management strategies, and internal policies designed to minimize future liability. Whether through early resolution or trial, we focus on delivering strategic, cost-effective solutions that minimize disruption to our clients’ operations and protect their business interests.
