Motor Vehicle Dealerships

Motor vehicle dealers must navigate a complex web of state and federal laws and regulations, while working with various constituents, including original equipment manufacturers (OEM), lenders, employees, and state administrative bodies. 

This requires lawyers with specialized experience, who can use a multi-disciplinary approach in providing responsive, real-time service to this unique industry. 

Underwood lawyers have assisted vehicle dealers for over two decades with services that include acquisitions, sales, financing (floor plans and facility leases and purchases), state license issues, equipment leasing, resolution of OEM disputes, human resources, litigation defense, and other matters covering the dealership landscape.

Our lead lawyer in this area is a member of the National Association of Dealer Counsel, an invitation-only group devoted to representation of motor vehicle dealers throughout the United States.
