Road Transport Solicitors
JMW’s team of specialist motoring and road transport solicitors has expertise providing assistance, advice and representation to businesses and individuals involved in the road transport industry including:
- Commercial HGV operators from scaffolding businesses, skip hire companies, waste carriers and plant hire companies to national and international haulage companies
- Commercial passenger vehicle operators from taxi, limousine and minibus operators to national and international PSV operators
- Transport managers and CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) holders
- Professional HGV and PSV drivers
We also act regularly for private individuals facing motoring offence charges.
If you are a transport firm and have any legal issue, call the experts now on 0800 054 2062 for quick practical advice.
JMW’s road transport and haulage specialists understand the needs of the logistics and passenger transport sectors and recognise that whilst some operators’ use of commercial vehicles is central to their business, for others it is merely an ancillary (albeit essential) part of their core business.
Either way it is important that any legal issues relating to vehicles need to be managed effectively.
