The Agreement Truck Driver Forum in Illinois serves as a legal contract between an owner/operator truck driver (Contractor) and a common carrier company (Carrier). This document outlines the obligations and rights of both parties regarding the transportation of goods, including the necessity for liability and cargo insurance, the invoicing process, and the documentation required for payment. Key features include the stipulation that the Contractor must maintain specific insurance coverage and indemnify the Carrier against claims. The form provides a structured way to establish the independent contractor relationship, emphasizing legal compliance and liability for cargo. It also prevents the Contractor from soliciting clients from the Carrier for two years post-agreement, ensuring business integrity. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it streamlines contract creation, ensures adherence to federal and state regulations, and outlines the responsibilities clearly, making it easier to manage transportation partnerships effectively.
