We have decades of experience in handling aviation disasters in all parts of the world. We work with airline clients on preparing and updating disaster manuals, and take part in disaster exercises.
We organise a programme of seminars and tuition on the legal issues that may arise and offer insight into our practical experiences of what has worked, and even more usefully, what has gone wrong in earlier events.
Our lawyers speak at conferences and seminars organised by IATA, ICAO, Southern Methodist University, McGill University, the Aviation Insurers Association, Asia Pacific Airlines Association, and other industry bodies and companies.
We can advise on the following areas:
- Support in handling legal, claims, public relations and family support issues following a disaster.
- Seminars on legal aspects of disaster handling.
- Review of disaster manuals to reflect latest legal developments and recommended practices.
- Supervision and coordination of international network of aviation correspondent lawyers.
- Experts to support airline's accident investigation team.
- Experience in handling, coordinating and supervising public enquiries and hearings.
- Support to airline's public relations department in legal/insurance elements of public statements.
- Auditing service to evaluate airlines' disaster preparedness.
