It’s one of the worst things that can happen to a trucking company. The phone rings with someone telling you one of your trucks has been in a crash, perhaps even a deadly one.

Whether your driver is at fault or not, a crash usually means one thing – you can expect an expensive and lengthy legal battle. The good news is you can prepare before the next crash happens.

Register now for the free PrePass webinar, “Defensible Drivers: Reducing Legal Risks,” as trucking defense attorney Doug Marcello explains how to establish a trucking company legal defense for claims you know are coming after a crash.

In this one-hour webinar you will also learn:

  • Steps to reduce your legal exposure and expenses when the next crash happens.
  • How to establish the best legal defense possible for claims against negligent hiring, training and supervision.
  • What evidence to present in a defense before an accident and developing a process to gather it afterwards.
  • Strategies that can ultimately result in better and safer drivers, reducing your fleets crash risk.

Doug Marcello is with the law firm of Marcello and Kivisto LLC, who represents trucking clients across the country. He was recently named to the Research Advisory Committee of the American Transportation Research Institute and is the 2018 recipient of the Leadership Award of the ATA Safety Council. He is a member of numerous trucking organizations and serves on the Board of Overseers of the Penn State University Dickinson School of Law.

In the webinar, Marcello will also show you how to develop a plan for accident response, the basis of claims that can be made against you and your company and how judgements against carriers can get very expensive. This is the one webinar you and others in your fleets can truly not afford to miss.
