A Global Practice
With offices in San Francisco and New York and affiliations with lawyers worldwide, Lieff Global is uniquely positioned to answer your questions and represent your interests. Our firm enjoys a premier reputation for professional integrity and for the efficient, aggressive and responsible prosecution of our clients' claims.
Lieff Global attorneys have over forty years of experience litigating aircraft accident cases. We represent passengers and persons on the ground injured in aircraft accidents, and the families of loved ones who perished. Our aviation practice, committed to upholding the rights of aviation disaster victims and promoting aviation safety, spans the globe.
The innovative work of our attorneys has helped establish the precedent that citizens of countries outside the United States can assert claims in American courts and obtain substantial recoveries against American plane and component manufacturers for aircraft accidents occurring abroad. We also have developed a network of experienced aviation lawyers on every continent that we work closely with in representing clients in their own countries.
Representing clients in aviation cases requires specialized knowledge in international aviation law, as well as a keen understanding of the relevant laws and regulations of each country. Our attorneys have secured substantial recoveries for thousands of victims of aviation disasters and their families.
Our Commitment
Lieff Global is committed to investing the resources necessary to succeed in every case we accept, and to providing the very best representation and support possible for our clients. We regularly communicate with our clients and work closely with them throughout the litigation process. Our attorneys work as a team, drawing upon their combined knowledge, training and skills to provide our clients with decades of experience in the field of global aviation law.
Our legal skills, along with our ability to advance the costs in our clients' cases, enable us to take on the most powerful corporations in the world and the large defense firms that represent them. Lieff Global has successfully litigated against many of the world's largest commercial airlines and aircraft manufacturers, including Boeing and Airbus.
With each case we take on, we seek not only to represent our clients, but also to bring about change in the aviation industry. Airlines, airports, airplane manufacturers and governmental agencies have the duty to protect the safety and security of passengers. We are committed to representing the interests of victims in aviation disasters and to ensuring that passenger safety and security is the aviation industry's number one priority.
Global Aviation Law Network
Our firm has ongoing relationships with leading injury and accident lawyers across the globe. In several of our cases, our lawyers have worked closely with the law firm of Martin-Chico & Associates, one of Europe's leading aviation law firms with offices in France and Spain. For Canadian cases, we are associated with the Toronto, Ontario law firm of Rochon Genova, which represents plaintiffs in a wide range of civil cases.
In addition to our attorneys, we have retained leading experts worldwide in the fields of accident and disaster reconstruction and aviation safety.
