80,000 Pounds vs. Your Family. The Truck Company vs. The Truth.
One second you’re driving home on I-285. The next second, an 18-wheeler plows into your car at 65 mph. Your family’s world explodes. But while you’re fighting for your life in the ICU, the trucking company’s accident response team is already on scene โ taking photos, interviewing witnesses, and downloading the truck’s black box data before it “disappears.”
They’re not there to help you. They’re there to protect their billion-dollar company.
At Gunn Law Group, we’re The Truck Evidence Specialists. We know exactly what trucking companies do in the first 48 hours after a crash โ because we move faster than they do. We preserve the evidence they want to destroy, we know the FMCSA regulations they violated, and we turn their own data against them.

The Evidence Trucking Companies Hope You Never Find
Commercial trucks are required by federal law to maintain electronic logs, GPS tracking, maintenance records, driver qualification files, and black box data. But trucking companies have 30 days to “preserve” this evidence after being notified. In practice, hard drives crash, files get corrupted, and maintenance logs get “accidentally” destroyed.

David vs. Corporate Goliath
Your Family vs. Their Corporate Defense Machine
External
An 80,000-pound truck destroyed your car, your body, and your life. You’re facing millions in medical bills, permanent disabilities, and lost income. Meanwhile, the trucking company has deployed a team of corporate lawyers, accident reconstructionists, and investigators to prove it wasn’t their fault.
Internal
You feel powerless, overwhelmed, and outgunned. How do you fight a billion-dollar company with unlimited legal resources when you can barely get out of bed?
Philosophical
Federal trucking regulations exist to protect families like yours from exactly this type of catastrophic crash. When trucking companies violate safety rules to maximize profits, the community has a responsibility to hold them accountable โ not let them escape through corporate legal tactics.
Meet Your Guide โ Our Evidence Preservation Process
We’ve fought this battle before โ and won. As The Truck Evidence Specialists, we know exactly what trucking companies do to avoid responsibility, and we counter every move they make. We’ve recovered millions from trucking companies by using their own evidence against them.
Immediate Response (0-24 hours)
We send spoliation letters to preserve all electronic evidence, dispatch investigators to the crash scene, and begin building your case while the trucking company is still planning theirs.
Evidence Collection (1-30 days)
We download black box data, obtain driver logs, review maintenance records, analyze FMCSA violations, and interview witnesses before they forget or disappear.
Your Victory Vision
Medical bills covered, lost income recovered, future care secured, and the satisfaction that the trucking company was held accountable for violating the safety rules that protect every family on the road.
The Stakes
Corporate lawyers are already working to minimize what they pay you. Every day you wait, evidence disappears and your case gets weaker.

Why We Own “Truck Evidence Specialists” in Atlanta
We don’t just handle truck accident cases โ we specialize in preserving and using the electronic evidence that trucking companies try to destroy. When we send a spoliation letter, trucking companies know they’re dealing with lawyers who understand their industry.
We Know the FMCSA Playbook
Federal regulations (49 CFR) require specific driver qualifications, hours of service limits, vehicle maintenance, and cargo securement. We know every regulation trucking companies commonly violate โ and how to prove those violations caused your crash.
We Move Faster Than Their Lawyers
Trucking companies deploy accident response teams within hours. We deploy faster. Our investigators are often on scene before their lawyers arrive, preserving physical evidence and witness statements they hoped to control.
We Speak Electronic Evidence
Black box data, electronic logs, GPS tracking, fleet management systems โ we know how to download, analyze, and interpret the electronic evidence that proves driver fatigue, speeding, distraction, and mechanical failures.
We’ve Broken Their Defense Strategies
We know how trucking companies shift blame to other drivers, claim mechanical failures were “unforeseeable,” and argue their driver followed all regulations. We’ve countered every defense strategy they use.
Community Safety Rules
The Federal Safety Rules That Protect Your Family
Every family driving on I-285, I-75, I-85, and I-20 depends on commercial truck drivers following federal safety regulations. These aren’t suggestions โ they’re community protection rules designed to prevent exactly the type of catastrophic crash that injured your family.
The Rules That Protect Everyone:
Drivers cannot drive more than 11 hours after 10 consecutive hours off duty
Drivers cannot drive beyond the 14th consecutive hour after coming on duty
Drivers must take a 30-minute break after 8 consecutive hours of driving
Drivers must maintain accurate electronic logs of all driving time
Why These Rules Exist:
Because tired truck drivers kill families. When a driver violates hours of service rules and causes a crash, they’ve endangered every vehicle on the highway. Your case enforces these life-saving rules.
The Rules Trucking Companies Must Follow:
Daily pre-trip vehicle inspections
Regular maintenance of brakes, tires, steering, and coupling devices
Immediate repair of any safety-related defects
Detailed maintenance records for every vehicle
The Community Stakes:
When trucking companies cut corners on maintenance to save money, they turn 80,000-pound vehicles into weapons on our highways.
The Rules Trucking Companies Must Follow:
Proper tie-down procedures for all cargo types
Weight distribution requirements
Regular cargo inspection during transport
Specialized securement for hazardous materials
Our Approach:
We prove the trucking company violated specific federal safety rules that every Atlanta family depends on, making your case about community enforcement, not just personal compensation.

When Trucking Companies See Our Evidence, Cases Settle
The trucking company claimed their driver wasn’t at fault and offered us $150,000. Gunn Law Group obtained the truck’s black box data that showed the driver was speeding and hadn’t taken his required rest break. The electronic evidence proved our case. Final settlement: $2.4 million.
โย Richard M., Gwinnett County (Verified Client)
My husband was killed by a drunk truck driver on I-75. The trucking company’s lawyers said they weren’t responsible because he was an independent contractor. Harrell Gunn proved they knew about his drinking history and failed to monitor him properly. The settlement provides for our children’s college education.
โย Lisa T., Marietta (Verified Client)

Scarcity ยท Urgency
The Evidence Destruction Clock Is Ticking
Critical time windows โ every hour costs you proof that could be worth millions.
Black Box Data
Trucks’ Engine Control Modules (ECMs) store the last 30 days of driving data โ speed, braking, engine RPMs, sudden stops. Some systems overwrite data every 30 days, others when triggered by new events. This data disappears forever without proper preservation.
Witness Statements
Other truck drivers who saw the crash often leave the area within days. Getting their statements while memories are fresh is critical โ they know industry practices and can identify regulatory violations.
Electronic Logs
Under FMCSA rules, trucking companies must preserve electronic logs when notified of an accident. Without legal notice, they may “routinely purge” older data. Driver qualification files, maintenance records, and dispatch communications follow the same timeline.
Your Evidence Window Is Closing:ย Every hour costs you proof that could be worth millions.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Atlanta Truck Accidents
Truck accidents involve federal regulations, multiple liable parties, complex insurance policies, and evidence that self-destructs. We’re specialists in FMCSA regulations and electronic evidence preservation โ skills general personal injury lawyers don’t have.
Electronic logs showing hours of service violations, black box data revealing speeding or harsh braking, maintenance records showing ignored safety defects, driver qualification files revealing hiring of unqualified drivers, and GPS data showing route violations or distracted driving.
Under federal law, trucking companies must preserve evidence when properly notified โ but they have incentives to “lose” it. We send spoliation letters within hours to prevent evidence destruction. Waiting even one day can cost critical proof.
That’s a common defense strategy. Under federal law, if the trucking company controlled how, when, or where the driver operated, they may be liable regardless of contractor status. We analyze the actual relationship, not just the paperwork.
