Overview
Locke Lord’s Aviation attorneys deal extensively with matters both within and outside the U.S. In many cases, Locke Lord defends the interests of aviation manufacturers, lessors and airlines for accidents occurring outside the U.S., but for which litigation is filed in the U.S. Our Aviation attorneys have successfully obtained dismissal and transfer of such claims to non-U.S. forums with a more direct connection to the claims. Once transferred to a non-U.S. forum, Locke Lord attorneys continue to represent the client's interests through oversight and coordination of the foreign proceedings and through the facilitation of communications with U.S.-based clients so as to ensure a strong defense of the claims.
Through our offices strategically located across the United States, we service our clients’ needs throughout the Americas, including North America, Latin America and the Caribbean. Additionally, Locke Lord’s aviation attorneys have established a comprehensive international network of correspondents and contacts enabling us to seamlessly deal with matters that touch and concern countries throughout the world.
