Wishing everyone a Happy Holiday this Easter and Passover. Our thoughts and prayers are with those suffering loss, struggling financially, or otherwise as a result of COVID-19. And we are so very grateful to our employees and clients who have been terrific during this time. To that end, it is with great humility that we ‘pay it forward’ with a donation to Americares and ALAN:

Americares is a health focused relief organization responding to people affected by poverty or disaster with medicine, medical supplies and health programs during this pandemic. Their Emergency Programs help communities prepare for, respond to and recover from disease and other disasters, providing millions with access to medicine, supplies and healthcare.

American Logistics Aid Network (ALAN) brings the logistics industry together with disaster relief organizations to help solve supply chain challenges so help can arrive sooner. ALAN also consults with humanitarian organizations to help make every logistics dollar count. Studies show that up to 80 percent of crisis spending goes to logistics. Of that, as much as 40 percent may be wasted if these organizations do not have the right supply chain equipment or experience.

As relates to your insurance-related needs, visit roanoketrade.com where we have created a special COVID-19 banner that links to information, a special phone and email (hotline) for claims questions, and mobile numbers of our management team. And oh by the way, if you are a client or employee of Roanoke reading this… Thank You!!

How to Protect Your Company from Nuclear Bodily Injury Verdicts

The liability landscape for the trade and transportation industry is changing. Carrier accidents on the road resulting in bodily injury and property damage (BIPD) claims pose a real financial threat to brokers, forwarders, and other transportation intermediaries. Recently, the number of large trucks involved in fatal crashes and the resulting jury awards have skyrocketed. Inconsistent application of the law has put the burden of these “nuclear verdicts” on not just the carriers but also the broker-forwarders responsible for hiring the carriers. This volatile litigation landscape and the rise in “nuclear verdicts” has specifically led to two related issues for transportation […]
