About Our Law Firm
Experienced Attorneys
Transportation Attorneys is a full service Law Firm dedicated to protecting and defending trucking and logistics companies. With the passage of AB5 and the "ABC" Test, the misclassification of employee drivers as Independent Contractors is exposing trucking companies to huge liability. Contact us for expert opinion on the use of "Owner-Operator" truck drivers and how to avoid the "ABC Test" in trucking. If you utilize IC drivers in any capacity, you need to understand the "Business to Business" exemption. And now more than ever, Independent Contractor contracts must be carefully drafted. We regularly see flawed independent contractor, driver and owner-operator agreements. These contracts are plagued with problems: they are invalid, generic, borrowed, boiler plate, outdated or simply illegal. Don't rely on flawed and worthless documents for protection. Instead, rely on us to keep your Independent Contractor practices current. We stay up to date on the laws regarding Independent Contractor/Owner-Operator truck drivers, especially AB5, AB2257, the ABC Test, and the Business to Business exemption. You can rely on us to provide you with the guidance you need to protect your company in this era of AB5, AB2257, the ABC Test, and the Business to Business exemption.

Liability Defense in Yucaipa, California
Accident & Liability Defense
Our firm has extensive experience litigating and trying Personal Injury, Workers' Compensation and Contract claims. Our understanding of medical issues, AECOM, AMA, and MTUS guidelines, disability rating schedules, and the calculation of damages in claims enables us to let you know what the case is really worth.
Many times, a transportation company will rely on their insurance company to come to their aid during suits arising from transportation accidents, not realizing that the interests of their insurance company are adversarial to that of the interests of the trucking companies themselves. We pride ourselves on being tough negotiators who agressively enter settlement discussions. Indeed, we're satisfied when we settle claims for half of what our authority is. We are able to wholly and completely represent the interest of our client and make sure that the insurance company presents a case in our client's best interest.

EDD Audit Consulting and Defense
EDD Audit Consulting and Defense
At Transportation Attorneys, we have the collective experience of dealing with and representing clients in over 100 EDD Audits. It's no secret that EDD is targeting trucking companies formisclassification audits. Furthermore, if EDD concludes you have been misclassifying your drivers, they will share that information with the IRS, FTB, DLR, etc. so those agencies can come after you for more money. We are up to date on the latest legal developments in the complictaed area of worker classification. When EDD targets your company, the critical issue is whether your drivers are properly classified as independent contractors. If they are not, you may face a devastating assessment. Contact us ASAP, whether you have been contacted by EDD or not, so we can help you avoid, prepare for, or defend yourself at an Audit. If you treat your drivers as Independent Contractors, you need to call us.
