For over three decades, Bradley Murchison attorneys have been closely involved with the unique legal issues affecting the rail industry.  Our attorneys have skillfully and successfully litigated diverse matters for both passenger and freight rail carriers, including expropriation and right-of-way disputes, grade crossing, trespasser and other third party actions, employee claims arising under the Federal Employers Liability Act, and unintended hazardous material releases resulting in both ordinary and class action proceedings.  Several of our litigators are members of the prestigious American Board of Trial Advocates and one is recognized by The Best Lawyers in America® and Super Lawyers of Louisiana® in the areas of transportation and railroad law.  We are active both regionally and nationally and have achieved important results benefiting the rail industry defending environmental remediation and cost recovery actions, as well as prosecuting insurance coverage disputes leading to the recovery of expenses incurred by its clients for environmental remediation.

Through our long and close partnership with the rail industry, our attorneys have developed a broad understanding of the specialized laws and regulations governing the industry's areas of operation.  This wealth of experience allows us to make available to our rail industry clients knowledgeable professionals with proven resources who are keenly sensitive to the many challenges facing the industry.

Our transportation law practice also includes extensive representation of over-the-road common carriers in litigation under the Interstate Commerce Act for damage to goods in transit, moratory damages occasioned by alleged untimely delay in delivery, and a variety of other claims and regulatory matters.
