Transportation Law

Frith Anderson & Peake represents inter- and intra-state motor carriers, private fleet operators and shippers, both directly and through their insurers.  Our representation of our transportation clients covers a wide range of civil and criminal matters, as well as issues and disputes arising out of the day-to-day operations of a trucking or shipping company.

The attorneys at Frith Anderson & Peake offer assistance with a broad variety of regulatory compliance matters, including hazardous material transportation regulations and federal motor carrier safety laws and regulations.  We also provide representation in motor carrier accidents cases.

Accidents involving trucking and transportation can lead to complex disputes and possibly litigation; expert legal advice and representation is therefore necessary.  Frith Anderson & Peake provides accident scene investigation, on-site evaluations, use of expert witnesses to determine and evaluate liability and potential exposure and effective trial representation if necessary.  We can also offer advice regarding environmental clean-up procedures associated with fuel spills and handling fuel and cargo containment issues.

We assist our clients with a wide range of matters including:

  • Contract negotiation & preparation
  • Regulatory compliance & licensing
  • Employment, non-competition & personnel matters
  • Risk management counseling
  • Accident investigation supervision/coordination
  • Insurance coverage issues
  • Tort liability defense
  • Alternative dispute resolution
