We prove this whenever we take on this type of case at The Glass Law Group. Our attorneys understand that there is a lot to consider before they take any type of action on your behalf. No matter where your case is being heard in Suffolk County, New York State law requires counsel to represent a corporation when their driver receives a trucking ticket.
