TRANSPORTATION/LOGISTICS

Transportation/Logistics

The Transportation industry faces far greater potential loss exposure than any other industry due to the propensity for catastrophic disasters, cargo liability, environmental impact, property damage and wrongful death claims. In addition to the usual employer/employee and principal/agent theories of liability, transportation cases often involve distinct allegations of negligent hiring, supervision and retention, and claims for punitive damages.
