Who We Are
Mission Statement
The Transportation Lawyers Association ("TLA") is an independent, international bar association whose members assist providers and/or commercial users of logistics and transportation services, regardless of mode. TLA is dedicated to keeping its members ahead of the constant changes in all aspects of the specialized legal environment affecting the transportation community, regardless of the particular legal discipline involved. With strong academic ties, commitment to excellence in continuing legal education, and a long tradition of collegiality and exchange of ideas, TLA is a resource for lawyers seeking to maximize both the quality of the legal services they provide and the quality of their professional lives.
For 75 years, TLA has been in the forefront of educating transportation attorneys. Through CLE courses and regular publications, our growing membership stays abreast of new developments in state and federal law affecting all modes of transportation.
In addition to hosting annual CLE symposiums of the highest quality in major cities and regional workshops in several sites across the U.S., we combine collegiality with professional education at Annual Conferences held in resort locations throughout the country.
Annual membership dues are $225 -- well worth it if your practice benefits even once from our unique referral network or our first-class CLE programs.
