About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of the Supreme Court's ruling on broker liability and the importance of a documented carrier vetting process.
The Supreme Court’s 9-0 decision in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II, LLC just changed the liability conversation for freight brokers, especially around negligent hiring and what “reasonable care” really means. We sit down with Danielle Spinelli from GenLogs to break down the ruling, the limits of carrier safety data, and why brokers need a documented, provable carrier vetting process before claims, insurers, shippers, and regulators start asking harder questions.
