C.R. England Settles Lawsuit Over Lease-to-Own Program

Those who can work the system get money always has and always been rather its mega carriers scamming drivers or lawyers.

 

My lawyer takes 25% of anything she does, so can you imagine 1 lawyer on this. That would be almost a $10 million payday, while the driver gets screwed..

 

Lease to never own program would be more like it...

 

You forget one important thing sometimes its more than one person, often its a team of lawyers. Sometimes you can negotiate a little for a flat rate and settlement. I have a team of lawyers, not the garbage companies sell their drivers.

Check this out. The trucker attorneys want $16 million, give or take, for their work with the lawsuit. You can't see the whole article from this link but what you can provides the specific number.

In a statement, a C.R. England spokesman said: “We are proud of the opportunity we offered to enterprising people to start and grow their own businesses. However, we understand that some were not happy with their experience, and we hope that this settlement resolves any lingering concerns.”

Really? What a line of meaningless crap.

 

KAG West was sued for not paying overtime, no breaks or lunches. KAG pays by the hour with less than 1% of trucks going out of state. I got around $15,000. Everyone thought that OT and paid breaks were on the way!!!


But why would they? They would have had to pay me close to $65,000 more if they did that. Being sued every 5 years or so but saving $50,000 per driver in that time. That’s a good way to make more money.

• $65,000 if I was paid OT, Breaks, Lunch

• - $15,000 Paid to me from lawsuit.

• $50,000 Savings to the company.

This is why nothing will change.


With Fuel truck you cannot be relieved of responsibility anywhere other than a safe harbor. That is why lunch and breaks should be paid.
