Aviation

While thousands of Americans continue to fly every day, the aviation industry itself is challenged as never before. The drastic economic downturn triggered by the events of September 11, 2001 has accelerated a decade-long trend of mergers, acquisitions, litigation, bankruptcies, rising fuel and operating costs, and labor difficulties. As the industry works to recover, some of the nation's best-known airlines are struggling financially, engaging in difficult union negotiations, and working to implement a whole new generation of security measures to protect passengers.

At Carlton Fields, we thoroughly understand the business of aviation - the laws, the risks, the regulations, the challenges, and the opportunities. The attorneys in our Aviation Practice are especially skilled and experienced in defending a wide range of claims stemming from major airline disasters, accidents, employment practices liability, and insurance. Their success has made Carlton Fields one of the premier aviation defense firms in the Southeastern United States.
