Course Overview

Most Trucking Cases Are Lost in the First Week, Not at Trial

2025-08-20 14:00:00

The carrier’s rapid-response team reaches the scene within hours. The evidence that decides the case — electronic logging data, event-data-recorder downloads, driver-qualification files — sits on the carrier’s servers and overwrites on a retention cycle measured in days. Work the file like a routine personal-injury intake, and the record is gone before you open it.

Wait for the police report, and the logging data has already cycled out. Run a standard intake, and no spoliation letter reaches the carrier in time. Sue the driver alone, and the carrier, broker, and shipper exposure walks.

This program walks the plaintiff-side sequence: applying the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, locking down data and records at intake, issuing FOIA requests, identifying carriers, brokers, and shippers as defendants, and separating direct-carrier negligence from vicarious liability. You leave able to build a 72-hour preservation protocol, structure direct-negligence claims, and control the 30(b)(6) deposition that decides the case before trial.

Key topics that will be covered

01
First-week race
The carrier’s rapid-response team preserves evidence within hours, setting a clock that spoliation notices and logging holds must beat.
02
Federal safety standards
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations supply the negligence hooks and define the records a carrier is required to keep.
03
Defendant mapping
Carriers, brokers, shippers, and third-party logistics providers each open a separate liability path to identify at intake.
04
Carrier negligence theories
Direct negligence in hiring, training, and supervision runs alongside vicarious liability for the driver’s conduct.
05
FOIA document pulls
Freedom of Information Act requests surface police, regulatory, and inspection records that fill the early evidence gaps.
06
30(b)(6) deposition
Designating topics and pinning the corporate representative early controls the discovery record that decides the case.

Program schedule

clock 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EST

Investigation, Discovery, and Pre-Trial Concerns from the Plaintiff Perspective

This session details how trucking claims diverge from car crashes, preserving electronic data, applying Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, issuing FOIA requests, pinpointing defendants, and building direct negligence and vicarious liability theories against the carrier.

Navigation Conversation: How to Successfully Chart the Course in Trucking Litigation

This session walks through a typical trucking claim’s pre-suit phase, stressing evidence preservation dos and don’ts, the musts that protect a claim from the outset, and the 30(b)(6) deposition tactics that decide trucking litigation.

Allen Law Group

Bryan L. Bradley is a nationally respected trial attorney and senior partner at Allen Law Group, LLC, where he devotes his practice exclusively to representing individuals and families harmed by catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death—primarily in complex commercial truck and bus crash litigation. He has spent his entire career fighting for the injured and has never represented insurance companies or corporations in defense. With extensive trial experience in both state and federal courts, Bryan has secured numerous seven- and eight-figure settlements and verdicts in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Wyoming, and North Carolina, in cases routinely involving wrongful death, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, disc injuries, and other life-altering harm resulting from negligent trucking operations. His success lies in his ability to untangle complex factual scenarios, identify all responsible parties, and bring clarity to multi-layered liability disputes involving motor carriers, brokers, shippers, and third-party logistics providers, drawing on deep fluency in electronic logging devices, event data recorders, fleet management systems, transportation and broker agreements, and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. Raised in a multigenerational trucking family, with a father and grandfather who were career truckers, Bryan brings an insider’s knowledge of the industry to his advocacy. He played a leadership role in the Indiana State Fair stage collapse litigation, a mass casualty event and one of the most significant civil cases in state history.

Education & Credentials

Bryan earned his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1991, followed by his Juris Doctor from Valparaiso University School of Law in 1994.

A retired Major of the U.S. Army Reserve Judge Advocate General's Corps, Bryan is a graduate of the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College and the U.S. Army Airborne and Infantry Schools, and a recipient of the Meritorious Service Medal for overseas service during Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Recognition & Leadership

Bryan is Board Certified in Truck Accident Law by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. He was named Attorney of the Year by Best Lawyers in Personal Injury and is a Best Lawyers in America selectee in both Plaintiff's Personal Injury and Product Liability across multiple years.

He is a contributing author to the Second and Third Editions of Truck Accident Litigation, published by the American Bar Association.

Experience

Throughout his career, Bryan has remained steadfast in representing individuals who have suffered injuries or loss due to the negligence of others, never representing corporations or insurance companies in defense litigation. His practice centers on catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases, with a particular focus on heavy truck and bus crash litigation involving motor carriers, brokers, shippers, and logistics providers. A sought-after speaker and instructor, he has presented nationally for the Academy of Truck Accident Attorneys, the Federal Bar Association, the National Business Institute, ICLEF, and the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association on topics including trucking regulations, civil trial practice, damages, and the use of scientific and electronic evidence in litigation.
