Richard Reibstein, a partner in Troutman Pepper Locke’s Labor + Employment Practice Group, was quoted in the November 28, 2025 Freight Waves article, “Misclassification Lawsuit: New Jersey Truck School’s Costly Settlement.”

  • Richard Reibstein, an attorney with the firm of Troutman Pepper Locke who specializes in independent contractor law, said the JTTT case posed some difficult questions.
  • “It is not that easy to have an independent contractor relationship with a bunch of CDL instructors,” Reibstein said in an email to FreightWaves. “I could certainly create a bona fide basis to structure an IC relationship as IC compliant, although it’s much harder in New Jersey under its ABC Test than in other states.”
