Cyprus
Weekly, "Aviation Law Expert Nigel Taylor Talks
to Cyprus Weekly About Air Disasters and the Recent
Greek Helios Crash"
Legal
specialists from Britain and the United States who work with
a large American law firm specializing in airplane accidents
were in Cyprus this week in the wake of the recent air disaster
and asked to speak to the Cyprus Weekly about the
purpose of their visit.
Nigel
Taylor of Nigel Taylor & Associates
in Kent, UK, and Michael C. Pierce with offices in Huston
and Panama City, said they were here to try and team up
with Cypriot lawyers in representing families of the Helios
plane crash through the Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein
firm in San Francisco and New York.
"We think it is too early to expect any families
to want to talk to lawyers; they are consumed by grief, as one would understand,
and they'd want rather to talk about why this accident happened, who was responsible,
how they will be held uncountable and what can be done to avoid a repetition
of this kind of accident in the future."

The
interview was held in the light of a recent announcement
by the Cyprus Bar Association advising the relatives of victims
to be cautious about being approached by foreign lawyers
on the matter of compensation claims. The legal specialists
said they were aware of the Bar announcement and stressed
they had not made any direct contact with the victims' relatives,
neither did they anticipate doing so. Here
is the full text of the interview.
