About Us – For Over 30 Years

AMERICAN TRUCKERS’ LEGAL ASSOCIATION (ATLA) was founded in 1987 to help professional truck drivers throughout the United States and Canada protect their CDLs and livelihood.  Expert CDL defense attorneys, with reduced, flat fees, fight most traffic violations, and most legal problems.  This saves drivers from unfamiliar court procedures and unproven attorneys who do not discount their legal fees.  Over the years, ATLA has seen a strong 9 out 10 plus win rate by the trucking lawyers to keep CDLs clean and dispute CSA/DAC points.*

Putting ATLA on their cases, gives professional truck drivers the option to stay out on the road; saving their wages, letting them keep working, avoiding the hassle of court dealings, and travel costs to court.  ATLA accepts most pre-existing tickets, missed court dates, and legal problems. With caring for the drivers and their families, rates have not been raised for 22 years.

A Better Business Bureau member in good standing for over twenty years (A + rating), ATLA regularly updates its large network of CDL attorneys, nationwide and Canada, who discount their fees for ATLA members and successfully fight for the drivers’ CDLs.

ATLA is built on a firm foundation of integrity, specialized knowledge, and a commitment to treating our members and their families with understanding and respect.  With a dedicated staff, many from trucking families, and a highly qualified Administrator (who has been with ATLA for over 25 years), ATLA understands the unique challenges of the trucking professional.  Our top priority is to help truckers “keep on trucking”.
