Aviation Law & Investigation
This section addresses the legal, regulatory, and investigative issues that arise in aviation accident matters. Aircraft cases often involve technical evidence, federal investigative procedures, certification and maintenance questions, and liability issues that differ substantially from those encountered in ordinary personal injury litigation.
The articles collected here are intended to provide a clearer understanding of the framework within which aviation cases are investigated and litigated. Topics may include the role of the National Transportation Safety Board, the relationship between the FAA and the NTSB, evidentiary and preservation issues, and recurring liability questions involving operators, manufacturers, maintenance providers, and other entities involved in aviation operations.
These resources are designed to complement the firm’s accident analyses by explaining the underlying process and legal structure rather than focusing on a single event.
