According to the board certification program, the term "truck accident law" is defined as dealing "with the procedural, substantive and practical issues unique to collision cases involving commercial tractor trailers, buses, and other commercial motor vehicles and all of the people and entities in the transportation cycle." On Tuesday, August 7, 2018, the American Bar Association approved the Academy of Truck Accident Attorneys, in partnership with the National Board of Trial Advocacy (NBTA), as the first organization accredited to provide board certification in the specialty practice area of Truck Accident Law.
The NBTA's Truck Accident Law specialty certification program is designed to help consumers find a qualified truck accident lawyer by providing objectively verifiable credentials. Board certification programs recognize the benefits of specialization for this unique and complicated practice area.
To become board certified in Truck Accident Law, the attorney must demonstrate a substantial percentage of their practice to trucking litigation, show hands-on experience in multiple truck accident cases, and pass a comprehensive written exam. Membership in the Academy is open to plaintiff lawyers only. The first board certification exam for Truck Accident Law occurred on November 10, 2018..
