Weiner Brodsky Sidman Kider’s transportation group provides highly focused legal services on matters involving short line and regional railroads and work trucks.  We advise our clients regarding transactions, regulatory concerns, labor issues and disputes.  Because our attorneys focus on two industry groups, we have an in-depth understanding of both the legal and non-legal issues that arise in those arenas.

Our railroad group has a high-profile, nationally recognized practice.  We have excellent working relationships with the Class I railroads and with the major labor organizations that represent railroad workers.  We regularly practice before the federal regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over railroads.  We provide full-service representation on Railway Labor Act matters.

Our attorneys have represented the work truck industry for more than 25 years.  We have an active practice before NHTSA, including advising manufacturers involved in recall cases.  Attorneys in our group also advise clients regarding the federal excise tax on bodies and chassis.
