Las Vegas Truck Collision Conference
Truck Collision Cases Require Special Knowledge
Most collisions involving trucks are very serious. The severity of injury and damage increases due to the size and weight of semi tractor trailers or other big trucks. In order to properly represent folks who are in these types of wrecks, attorneys need special education and knowledge relating specifically to the trucking industry. Too many lawyers treat truck collision cases like any other car accident case and they should not.
American Association for Justice Trucking Collision Conference in Las Vegas
The AAJ Trucking Collision Conference I previously blogged about was, according to attenders, an overwhelming success. Over 100 people registered. I moderated the second day and was honored to introduce outstanding lawyers and experts. We even had a live truck inspection by RGK Consultants in the parking lot at Caesar's Palace.
Prior to the official conference, the Interstate Trucking Litigation Group had their Members Only meeting on Thursday. It was also a success. Joining us at my invitation was former Chief Justice of the Nevada Supreme Court William Maupin. Justice Maupin was part of a panel of of Judges from around the country discussing their perspectives on trials involving truck collision cases.
I presented on the issue of Independent Contractor Defense and Statutory Employment pursuant to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. I was joined by excellent speakers discussing topics pertinent to the issues in truck cases.
I was complimented on my presentations and appreciated the comments:
Tim: Thank you for your presentation at the recent seminar and the copy of the brief.
