REgulation
The regulatory landscape in New York is rapidly changing and evolving with advances in technology and changing ideas as to . With so many special interests, the LRT needs to ensure that the voice of the livery is heard. That’s where we come in. We are active with the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission and regularly testify at public hearings. We are also fortunate to be able to have excellent relationships with those who make policy at the Commission. This ensures our voices are heard.
LITIGATION
Litigation is almost always the means of last resort, but when necessary, we are sure to assemble a legal team that knows the industry and knows the law so when we have to initiate litigation to represent the interests of the livery industry, we are sure to have the best representation possible. There are times.
LEgislation
The New York State legislature and New York City Council have members who may or may not support our initiatives, but we are always sure to get a seat at the table to ensure that our position and points of view are heard and our interests are protected. The LRT strives to stay on top of legislative initiatives and get involved in the process so the interests of the industry are well represented. Our lobbyists are of the best in the industry.
