When can aviation lawyers help you?

Aviation lawyers specialise in laws to do with the airspace, airports and aircraft. Aviation law encompasses many different types of law, as businesses in the aviation industry are generally multi-faceted with various legal issues. Aviation lawyers can advise on matters specific to the aviation industry, such as aeronautical leases and licenses. Aviation law incorporates very technical rules that require careful interpretation. Aviation lawyers will also generally advise on general business and commercial law for business-related issues.

Aviation lawyers are well versed in European and international law. They will generally also be familiar with aviation laws in many other countries. Cross-border negotiation may be required to negotiate disputes and claims over accidents and to secure important contractual negotiations.

Aviation lawyers typically work for private airlines, airports or government bodies, however aviation law will also be relevant to smaller businesses and individuals with disputes over aviation matters. Some lawyers may therefore specialise in aviation law along with other areas of law.

Contract law and insurance law are also particularly important aspects of aviation law. If you have had a dispute as a consumer over your dealings with a private airline, an aviation lawyer may be able to advise you. As aviation law is a very niche area of law, aviation lawyers can be expensive. You should always speak to your lawyer about the estimated costs of their assistance.
