Experience and knowledge are the keys to success when defending commercial motor vehicles and their insurers in motor vehicle accident litigation, freight claims and insurance coverage disputes. At RAWLE & HENDERSON, the Commercial Motor Vehicle Section is composed of more than twenty attorneys who focus their practice on commercial motor vehicle defense. The attorneys in this group defend the owners of commercial motor vehicles and their insurers on a daily basis; not as part of their practice, but as their primary practice. Aggressive defense and frequent reporting are the hallmarks of this practice group.
The attorneys in the Commercial Motor Vehicle Section have experience in federal and state court litigation and they know the problems facing the industry today. The attorneys are active members in transportation-related organizations, such as the Trucking Industry Defense Association (TIDA), Transportation Lawyers Association (TLA), Commercial Transportation Litigation Committee of the American Bar Association (ABA), American Trucking Association Litigation Center (ATA), Trucking Law Committee of the Defense Research Institute (DRI), the Conference of Freight Counsel and the Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey Motor Truck Associations.
This team of trial attorneys defends commercial motor vehicle cases in all of the federal and state courts of Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey and Delaware. Additionally, they have been requested by clients to defend lawsuits in other states such as Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Florida.
The Commercial Motor Vehicle Section at RAWLE & HENDERSON publishes a monthly newsletter, the Transportation Law Update, as a service to its clients and the industry. The newsletter provides timely articles on new trends in the law and the potential impact of these developments on litigation concerning the industry. In addition, State Law Summaries for Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey and Delaware have been prepared which outline significant laws that affect commercial motor vehicles operating in those jurisdictions. The Transportation Law Update and State Law Summaries are available on this website.
The Commercial Motor Vehicle Section attorneys are accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to any emergency that arises after customary business hours at 888-RAWLE-10 or 888-729-5310.
