When people, products or goods start to move, transportation companies and organizations confront the “law in motion” – the full range of legal, regulatory, compliance and other related issues. These issues often converge and constantly change.

Eckert Seamans does not utilize a one-track approach to transportation issues. Rather, it uses the full extent of its full-service, multi-discipline resources. In a legal sense, these resources have paved the way for thousands of miles of smooth, open-road travel for trucking, turbulence-free air miles for aviation, and efficient and comprehensive mobility for public transit.

It takes people, machines, equipment and infrastructure to make society move. With each layer, a new dynamic is added to the simple equation of working to make sure that passengers, important cargo and critical shipments reach their destinations as safely and timely as planned. Inherent to the firm’s Transportation Industry Group is a complete understanding that at each layer, a host of new or potential legal issues and questions must be considered and addressed. It has been with this holistic view that Eckert Seamans has built its Transportation Industry Group around three primary transportation disciplines:

• Trucking & Logistics
• Aviation
• Public Transit
