From this field of law, legal advice is also provided to all actors working in the field of airport maintenance facilities, as well as governments in charge of public infrastructures, financial institutions with aeronautical interests, and airlines.
Aviation litigation is a highly specialized area that requires knowledge of aviation international laws, aviation insurance, and air accidents, as well as commercial disputes. Claim for damages in aviation accidents is one of the most delicate areas of specialization in aviation law and we are experts in this area. Commercial transactions involving aircraft usually raise issues that also affect international law particularly related to the granting and enforcement of security interests and protection of national regulations.
This specialization covers from commercial transactions involving joint ventures, M&A, a wide diversity of contracts, tax planning, insurances among others, to litigation and arbitration related to injuries, cargo claims or insolvency, and contractual issues related to airlines and debtors. Franchises and constitution of airlines are also covered by this practice.
Regulatory compliance is also a big part of the aviation law practice, due to antitrust issues with international elements. The knowledge of Competition Law is also a need for lawyers working in this field of law.
Public-private partnership projects often include tender documentation support, preparation of concession/project agreements, financing, construction contracts, sub-contracting documentation, and legal advice on land and real estate aspects of a great variety of transactions.
Customer loyalty and its programs, as well as e-commerce issues related to the online sale of airline tickets are also a subject of legal advice.
