King
& Ballow has assembled a sophisticated staff of transportation
attorney-practitioners who represent numerous commercial motor carriers in
labor, employment, and business-related disputes. Truckload and
less-than-truckload carriers seek our counsel on federal laws and statutes
relating to Safety, Labor and Employment Law issues, insurance coverage
disputes, freight loss and damage claims, independent contractor status,
contract construction and interpretation, workers' compensation, and other
industry-related matters. Our
attorney’s have lectured on these topics before the American Trucking
and Tennessee
Trucking Associations. We also published Whistleblowing
on Wheels, Management's Guide to the Surface Transportation Assistance Act,
which explains the trucking industry employees' whistleblowing
statute, and provides guidance for managers and dispatchers when confronted
with drivers' refusals to operate for safety-related reasons, as well as
dealing with other industry employees who voice safety concerns.
