           The firm performs substantial work for labor organizations and employees in the rail
    and airline industry under the Railway Labor Act.

            From 1985 onward, the firm's lawyers have represented clients in connection with
    many major air carrier transactions and bankruptcies The legal services provided in these
    matters range from advice and negotiations to arbitration and litigation before the federal
    courts and administrative agencies.  In other cases, we have represented mechanics and
    pilots under the Federal Aviation Regulations generally, as well as in connection with
    aircraft accidents.  Our familiarity with air carrier economics is reflected by our
    representation of employee interests before the U.S. Department of Transportation under
    Section 43 of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978.  Over time, we have represented the
    interests of virtually every major craft or class (though, of course, not on every carrier) in
    the every sector of the airline industry.  

            The firm also provides representation to major rail labor organizations in both
    collective bargaining and before federal Presidential Emergency Boards established by the
    President of the United States in labor emergencies arising under Section 10 of the
    Railway Labor Act. Further, we provide representation in litigation to rail labor organizations.
