Motor Carrier Defense

Motor Carrier Defense

CC&I has a dedicated group of attorneys focused on resolving issues faced by motor carriers operating in and through the State of New York. Our practice extends to defending against claims brought for personal injuries arising out of the use and operation of commercial motor vehicles, as well as defending against actions commenced by regulatory bodies under both State and Federal Law.

The firm’s litigation group and support staff are familiar with the impact of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations on the day-to-day operations of motor carriers in New York State. We have also conducted arbitration on behalf of our clients in response to fines levied for regulatory violations. Our clients know that we have the litigation background, knowledge of insurance law, and legal acumen to provide them with the best possible resolution of the issues they face each day. Our firm is able to accomplish this by quickly responding to our client’s needs in order to minimize areas of exposure, and controlling the manner and pace in which litigation is conducted. Finally, CC&I makes sure that only the issues heard are those which matter, never allowing the trucking industry itself to be put on trial.
