FRANKLIN, TENNESSEE (TruckingNewsNow.com) — Matthew Wright knows just how difficult it can be to take on a trucking company following a catastrophic crash. As a former insurance company defense attorney, it was Wright’s job to protect the truck drivers and others when they killed or maimed motorists.
Wright says, “Many of the insurance companies cared little about the people making claims.” Deciding it was time to switch gears, he opened a practice focusing on helping the victims. He now continues these efforts by joining the preeminent trucking safety law firm in the United States.
In 2020, Michael Leizerman and Andy Young merged their firms to create The Law Firm for Truck Safety. The mission of this new firm is to handle a small number of important trucking cases with a legal team dedicated to listening to clients, relentlessly uncovering the truth of what happened and maximizing recovery. The firm’s lawyers are dedicated to fiercely advocating for its clients while compassionately helping them use the legal process to help heal.
