Driving Adoption of Novel Transportation Modes & Sustainable Vehicle Tech
Marten’s regulatory team has significant transportation law and policy experience, from the development of rules governing drones at the White House to the negotiation of historic joint fuel economy/greenhouse gas emission standards for light duty cars and trucks and commercial trucks at EPA. We are well-positioned to counsel micromobility, electric, and connected and autonomous clients, as well as traditional on automotive, commercial aviation, and freight and passenger rail companies on strategic regulatory compliance, permit acquisition and defense, enforcement actions, project development and CleanTech transactions, privacy and data security, and litigation. We help with all aspects of environmental, health, safety, security, and corporate social responsibility impacting the sector. For example, in one recent representation, Marten advised an electric scooter company on its appellate options following the denial of municipal operating permit and helped to formulate the strategy that resulted in hundreds of e-scooters on the ground through a city pilot.
