Broker Liability Case: Legal Possibilities and Insurance Implications

Ron Leibman discusses “Broker Liability Case: Legal Possibilities and Insurance Implications” at an event hosted by TD Cowen, a division of TD Bank securities. Ron explores the potential legal, insurance, and operational outcomes stemming  from the Supreme Court’s May 14 decision in Montgomery v Caribe Transport II, LLC, et al where the Court found that freight brokers are not covered by federal preemption by the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act in regard to motor carriage safety matters, and may be sued under state law for their negligent hiring of carriers.
