Employment Law

• Employment Litigation
  We work aggressively to resolve tort matters pre-suit based upon candid and rapid analysis of complicated liability and damages claims and, when resolution is not possible, our attorneys are adept at identifying and capitalizing upon strategic defense issues including issues of federal preemption and venue considerations, operational control determinations and implications, liability shifting and apportionment opportunities, and mitigation of damages theories. This same approach is employed in our defense of commercial aviation litigation matters, including employment disputes, breach of contract claims, airport operator versus tenant disputes, and other business-related tort theories. Our team also handles regulatory defense matters including the defense of certificate holders, private businesses (aviation and non-aviation), and individuals in FAA enforcement proceedings, including emergency certificate revocation proceedings, proposed certificate actions, and proposed civil penalty actions.
