AREAS OF PRACTICE:

COMMERCIAL TRUCKING & TRANSPORTATION DEFENSE

SHM offers to our clients the experience to meet their litigation needs in the commercial transportation industry. A unique feature of our program is the “on scene” team which provides an immediate onsite accident investigation by an attorney and retained expert. This allows for documentation of physical evidence and statements of witnesses. SHM has determined that this early investigation, combined with the use of trial technology and reconstruction allows for the early resolution of the majority of these claims and outstanding trial results when necessary. We have successfully defending claims against truck drivers, trucking companies, and their employers. Our attorneys provide pre-litigation guidance in education to the clients’ risk management department through seminars and other training methods.
