Defending the Drivers: Inside 35 Years of Legal Support with Driver’s Legal Plan
In this episode of NGT Talks, host Lindsay Trent engages with Brad Klepper and Marilyn Surber from Driver's Legal Plan, who share insights into their 35-year history as a national law firm dedicated to defending CDL drivers and motor carriers. The discussion covers the company's affordable legal services, wherein drivers pay a flat fee of $100 per case for traffic violations, with a 95% success rate without requiring their presence in court. They highlight the importance of maintaining a clean motor vehicle record (MVR) for employability and clarify common legal misconceptions, such as the mistaken belief that paying a ticket erases it from one’s record. The conversation also emphasizes Driver's Legal Plan's commitment to driver education by collaborating with trucking schools and sponsoring young leadership programs. For drivers and carriers interested in legal assistance, resources are available through their website or by phone.
