NASHVILLE, TN (TruckingNewsNow.com) — From analyzing telematics to learning the best techniques for deposing experts in a trucking crash case, nearly 300 attorneys from across the United States are meeting in Nashville this week for the annual Academy of Truck Accident Attorneys (ATAA) symposium.

Founded by nationally renowned Truck Accident Attorneys Joe Fried and Michael Leizerman, the ATAA promotes safety through action. Its goal: keeping the roads safe for motorists while holding truck drivers — and their companies — accountable when laws are not followed.

The American Bar Association recently recognized truck accident law as a legal speciality and approved a board certification in this unique area of the law.
