We are a boutique law firm serving as national litigation counsel in matters involving major transportation companies. C&F represents multiple large freight railroads, motor carriers, and other national and international transportation companies in both plaintiff and defense capacities.
The work here is extremely diverse, interesting, national, and in most cases, federal...you will be challenged.

The people you will work here with are smart, creative, skilled, and more importantly, they are good people.
Our work quality is unmatched as is our efficiency, but we always find a way to have fun and have some laughs every day.
We do not expect the candidate to be experienced in rail or motor carrier transportation issues, but we do expect the candidate to be a proficient litigator and have experience taking depositions, handling electronic discovery, preparing pleadings, and conducting research.
Our offices are located in the center of Suburban Square in Ardmore surrounded by many restaurant options, Life Time fitness, shopping, and a farmers market.
