Aviation

We defend our aviation clients in courtrooms all over the country involving products liability claims of aviation equipment and aviation crashes for helicopter and aircraft manufacturers, component manufacturers, insurance carriers and aircraft owners.

Some examples of the types of claims we’ve defended include metallurgical and fuselage failure, cargo door failure, allegations of turbine engine failure, crashes, property damage, personal injury and wrongful death. 

How do we do it?  Hard work and experience.  From the initial investigation to the retention and preparation of experts, from deposition to trial, we work closely with our clients to develop and implement a winning strategy.  And when it comes time to try the case, we don’t duck.  We stay in the game and we play it to win. 

And our aviation experience goes beyond legal strategies and case work.  We have three licensed pilots among our ranks – including a hot air balloonist.  We are also members of the Lawyer-Pilots Bar Association.

As one of the country’s leading providers of defense counsel for personal injury, wrongful death and property damage claims for automobiles, recreational vehicles and other transportation-related manufacturers, we are well-prepared and ideal candidates to work for you.  We bring that nationally recognized products liability and trial experience to bear on your cases.  We know how to explain complicated engineering and manufacturing processes to juries.

We are able to do that, because we ourselves know it.  We pride ourselves on that deep technical knowledge and understanding of our clients products, including the design and manufacturing processes, as several of our attorneys are in fact former engineers, including one metallurgist.  And when we need counsel of outside experts, we have access to the country’s top engineers, scientists and accident reconstructionists.

Very simply, we know products.  We know aviation.  We know plaintiff attorneys.  We know courtrooms.  Let us know you.
