When truck drivers drive too many hours without getting enough rest, it is a violation of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations. To cover up these violations, some truck drivers resort to falsifying their logbooks. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident in Arizona, it is important to consult with an attorney who knows how to find the facts, even when a logbook is falsified.

Finding the Truth When Logbooks are Falsified
Why do truck drivers falsify logbooks? Federal regulations limit the number of hours they can drive in one day, on consecutive days and per week. Sometimes, often due to pressure from their employers, they violate these rules in pursuit of greater profit.
Even if the data in the logbook is falsified, there are other sources of evidence that can help us find the facts.
Our Arizona false logbooks attorneys search for evidence in hotel and gas receipts, cellphone records, GPS data and other sources that help us tell the true story of how many hours the driver had been driving at the time of the crash.
This thorough investigative approach has helped us obtain favorable results for clients throughout Arizona and nationwide.
