Trucking & Transportation

We routinely defend trucking and transportation clients in high-exposure cases involving driver negligence, speed, loading and tie-down issues, mechanical and maintenance defects, and other alleged safety violations. Our experience includes claims arising from catastrophic brain and orthopedic injuries, wrongful death, PTSD, and other serious physical and emotional damages, as well as mass tort actions where multiple claimants or incidents are involved.

Our team is experienced in the technical and scientific aspects that drive modern transportation litigation, including hours-of-service compliance, log falsification and fatigue, accident reconstruction, human and biomechanical factors, and toxicology. We work with data from global positioning devices, electronic data recorders, and other telematics systems, and we are skilled at handling spoliation issues and evidence preservation to ensure that key electronic and physical evidence is protected and properly presented.

We represent national interstate carriers and transportation companies, local in-state haulers, self-insured fleets, insurance companies, leasing companies, independent contractors, and logistics providers. In many matters, we serve as national core counsel or go-to regional counsel for large carriers who need a trusted team that understands both their operations and their risk profile.

Beyond accident defense, we provide end-to-end support for trucking and logistics businesses, including emergency response and on-scene investigation, accident investigation and evidence collection, and ongoing risk management. Our lawyers handle litigation in state and federal courts, advise on regulatory compliance, labor and employment issues, mergers and acquisitions, corporate structuring, transportation and logistics contracts, and workers’ compensation matters, providing clients with a single, coordinated legal partner for their transportation needs.
