Building a claim against USPS Highway Contract Carriers
Claims against large carriers hinge on the same core evidence as any truck accident case — the driver's qualification file, hours-of-service and ELD logs, maintenance records, and the carrier's FMCSA safety history — obtained through prompt evidence preservation and formal discovery. Because carriers of this scale carry substantial commercial insurance, cases are often resolved through a structured claims and litigation process rather than quick settlement.
