That gap is what uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage exists for. UM pays when the at-fault driver has no insurance. UIM pays when they have some, but not enough. Both live on your own policy, and both protect you and your family, not the other driver.

Two things many Alabama drivers don’t know. Insurers here must offer this coverage, and rejecting it has to be done in writing. And depending on your policy, Alabama law may allow you to stack coverage from more than one vehicle, which can matter a great deal after a serious crash.

Check your declarations page this week. If UM and UIM are missing or set at the minimum, ask your agent what raising them costs. It is often one of the least expensive lines on the policy.

If you’ve already been hurt in a crash and aren’t sure what coverage applies, we can help you understand your options.

CDL licensed trucking accident attorney Jamiel Peterson talks about how the federal minimum insurance for eighteen wheelers is only $750,000, set in 1980 and never adjusted for inflation, which is far below what a serious injury can cost today.

One decision can change everything.

As a CDL licensed trucking attorney, Jamiel likes breaking down close calls like this because they remind us how quickly routine driving can become dangerous.

This video is not about pointing fingers. It is about learning from situations before someone gets hurt.

Professional drivers are trained to anticipate hazards, leave themselves an escape route, and make safe lane changes only when they can be completed without affecting surrounding traffic.

Those small decisions often prevent catastrophic crashes.

Alabama trucking attorney Jamiel Peterson explains that federal regulations govern how long CDL drivers can operate their vehicles, including the eleven-hour driving limit within a fourteen-hour window after ten hours off duty. He discusses how driver fatigue is as dangerous as drunk driving and why electronic logging devices are crucial in accident investigations. These devices record driver activity and can reveal if a driver exceeded legal limits or was pressured by their company to keep driving, turning an ordinary wreck into evidence of negligence.

Attorney Jamiel Peterson discusses Alabama’s strict pure contributory negligence law and why it matters after a car or truck accident. He talks about how insurance companies actively hunt for even the smallest percentage of fault against you. Whether it’s drifting in your lane, speeding slightly, or being on your phone, because finding just 1% can mean you recover absolutely nothing instead of a settlement.

Today, we pause to reflect and celebrate Juneteenth.

On June 19, 1865, federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas with the news that more than 250,000 enslaved people were finally free two years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed. A year later, in 1866, communities gathered for the very first Juneteenth celebrations, then known as “Jubilee Day” and “Freedom Day,” marked by prayer, music, and shared meals.

More than 160 years later, that same spirit of freedom, resilience, and togetherness still endures. Now recognized as a federal holiday, Juneteenth stands as the longest-running African American celebration in our nation’s history.

From our family to yours, we wish you a meaningful and joyful Juneteenth.

Trucking companies are required by federal law to screen every driver they put behind the wheel of a commercial vehicle. When they skip that process or ignore red flags and that driver later causes a crash, the company itself may be independently liable under Alabama’s negligent hiring doctrine.

Our blog breaks down six common hiring failures that may create legal liability for the trucking company.
