HIGH RISK — do not proceed without direct FMCSA verification
AI Risk Summary

J&L UNIFIED LLC is a very new carrier with authority granted just five days ago, which presents a high-risk factor due to limited operational history. The company currently has no broker or common carrier authority, no bond on file, and no insurance coverage listed, increasing potential liability concerns. While they have filed the required MCS-150 recently and are authorized to operate by FMCSA, the lack of a safety rating and minimal driver count suggest limited experience and oversight. Proceed cautiously and consider requiring additional proof of insurance and safety compliance before engaging with this carrier.

Always call back on the FMCSA-registered number (903-521-5883) — not the number that contacted you. Scammers impersonate legitimate carriers and brokers.

One Thing FMCSA Can't Tell You

FMCSA confirms this carrier's authority exists. It can't confirm the person dispatching is who records say — that's how double brokering and cargo theft happen.

  • The Supreme Court's vicarious liability ruling means one unvetted carrier can expose you to a nuclear verdict.
  • Double brokering is at record highs. Scammers clone legitimate authority and re-broker your load.
  • Purple Squirrel closes the gap: MVR pulls + selfie ID checks prove the driver is who records say.

Get Notified If Anything Changes — Free

We'll email you if this carrier changes status

We check FMCSA weekly and alert you if authority status or official safety rating changes — revocations, suspensions, or rating updates.

FMCSA only updates the official safety rating after a formal audit — most carriers never get one. New inspections and crashes won't trigger this alert. For real-time protection against scams and liability — proof that the driver picking up your freight is actually who the records say — that's what our paid MVR + selfie ID verification does.
