Display event - Safety Policies and CDL Manuals

Safety Policies and CDL Manuals

Plaintiffs are slowly turning away from Reptile Theory and adopting a new approach focusing on company safety policies and CDL manuals to establish a “duty” the motor carrier or driver violated. Join two seasoned trucking attorneys as they delve into just how these policies/manuals are being used to establish liability in trucking cases and what defense attorneys can do from the pre-suit stages through trial to prevent a violation of a policy or manual from increasing the value of your case or the verdict award.

What will you learn?

• How plaintiff’s attorneys use company safety policies and state CDL manuals to establish a “duty” owed by the motor carrier or driver;
• How to prepare your witnesses or clients to respond to questions about the company safety policies or state CDL manuals; and
• Winning strategies defense attorneys can utilize from the pre-suit stages through trial to prevent a violation of a safety policy or CDL manual from increasing the value of the case or the verdict award.

Who should attend?

• Defense attorneys representing motor carriers or drivers in connection with commercial motor vehicle accident cases; and
• Industry professionals and clients who are interested in learning how safety policies and state CDL manuals are being used to establish liability.
