The term “transportation law” is often misunderstood. Many clients equate transportation law with truck accidents. While truck accident litigation is certainly a part of transportation law, it is only a very small part. Transportation law more frequently involves the multi-faceted relationships between motor carriers, shippers and logistic companies. We have represented each of these parties in the following areas:
OS&D claims- Transportation contract disputes
- Insurance negotiation and disputes
- Owner/operator contract disputes
- FMCSA regulations
- Driver medical and controlled substance compliance
- EEOC anti-discriminatory regulations
My experience as general counsel for a large transportation company ingrained upon me that the resolution of these potential commercial litigation claims among these parties is very delicate. Usually there is a long standing business and personal relationship that has been strained. We have learned over the years that, at times, artful diplomacy is more fruitful than aggressive litigation. Allow our experience to work for you. Call us to discuss your transportation law needs.
