LATEST NEWS 🚨: A major Supreme Court ruling could change how truck accident cases are handled across Virginia.
The Court ruled that freight brokers may be held liable when they negligently hire unsafe trucking companies.
“This ruling is an important step forward for truck accident victims and public safety. Freight brokers play a major role in deciding which trucking companies are placed on our roads. When they ignore serious safety concerns and put profits ahead of safety, they should be held accountable. This decision helps ensure that all responsible parties can be pursued when negligence causes devastating injuries.”
