Expert Legal Support for a Fast-Moving Industry
Transportation is one of the most regulated sectors in business. Trucking fleets, airlines, shipping lines, and railroads all operate under overlapping federal, state, and local regulations, including DOT safety filings, FAA certifications, Coast Guard requirements, and FRA compliance.
For law firms advising transportation clients, the challenge isn’t just knowing the rules; it’s managing the relentless flow of filings, permits, claims, and compliance documentation.
Aeren LPO extends your firm’s capacity by taking on process-heavy legal work, allowing your attorneys to focus on advocacy, negotiations, and client strategy.
Key Legal Challenges
Transportation businesses get buried under the same types of legal work
- Safety Violations – DOT inspectors find logbook errors, FAA auditors question maintenance records, accidents trigger investigations that require immediate legal response
- Driver and Employee Issues – Commercial drivers challenge license suspensions, union contracts require updates, workplace injuries lead to workers’ compensation claims, and OSHA investigations are conducted.
- Route and Operating Permits – New service areas require authority applications, international routes need bilateral agreements, and local authorities want updated insurance certificates.
- Accident Claims – Freight damage disputes, passenger injuries, third-party property damage, and insurance companies that want detailed documentation for every incident
- Environmental Compliance – Fuel spill cleanups, emissions testing, noise ordinance violations, and environmental impact studies for new facilities or routes
