Experienced Texas Aviation Law Attorneys
Aviation problems emerge quickly and can be as complex as the aircraft involved. A pilot might receive a letter from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), an owner may need help closing a sale or a family could be seeking answers after a crash. If you are in any of these situations, you will need attorneys who know this industry well.
Gauntt Koen Binney & Kidd, LLP, aviation law attorneys work with clients across Dallas, Texas, and Houston. We bring real knowledge of federal aviation rules to cases that most general law firms rarely see.
Types Of Aviation Cases We Handle
Aviation law covers a wide range of legal issues, from injury claims to disputes involving pilot licenses and aviation business transactions. Our attorneys handle matters such as:
Aircraft accidents and wrongful death claims
We represent clients in matters involving aircraft accidents and wrongful death claims arising from crashes involving passengers, crew members or other people affected by an aviation accident.
FAA enforcement actions
We assist with FAA enforcement matters, including certificate reviews, compliance checks and other regulatory actions that may affect pilots, operators and aviation businesses.
Aircraft purchase, sale and lease disputes
Our attorneys handle disputes involving the purchase, sale or lease of aircraft, including disagreements over contracts and transaction terms.
Maintenance, repair and airworthiness issues
We represent clients in disputes involving aircraft maintenance, repairs and airworthiness requirements, including matters involving Part 91 and Part 135 operations.
Charter flight, private jet and helicopter matters
We assist clients with legal issues involving charter flights, private jets and helicopter operations, including operational, contractual and regulatory concerns.
Each aviation matter presents different legal and factual issues. Identifying where your situation fits is often the first step toward finding an appropriate legal solution.
Who We Represent
Our clients come from every part of the aviation world, and each group faces its own set of problems. A pilot dealing with an FAA notice needs different help than an aircraft owner reviewing a lease or a family coping with a crash.
Pilots and airmen
Our aviation lawyer for pilots handles certificate reviews, enforcement cases and other FAA disputes that put a pilot’s license or job on the line.
Aircraft owners and executives
Buying, selling or leasing an aircraft means working through detailed contracts and rules. Our aircraft owner attorney Texas team walks owners and executives through these deals from start to finish.
Aviation businesses and operators
Charter companies, flight schools and other operators deal with ongoing rules and paperwork. Our aviation business lawyer Texas team helps these companies meet FAA requirements and sort out day-to-day disputes.
Passengers and families affected by crashes
Families dealing with an aircraft accident need attorneys who take the situation seriously and know how to handle the technical evidence involved. We represent passengers and families pursuing accident and wrongful death claims.
Airports, FBOs and maintenance providers
Airports, fixed-base operators (FBOs) and maintenance shops often run into liability or contract problems tied to daily operations. Our attorneys help these businesses handle the legal issues that come with their role in aviation.
This mix of clients keeps our aviation law attorney team familiar with both business deals and courtroom disputes.
Why Choose Our Texas Aviation Law Team
Aviation law blends federal rules, contract law and injury law, and few attorneys build a practice around all three. Texas is home to major airlines, private aviation hubs and a large network of airports. Cases here often cross multiple courts and involve technical details.
Our attorneys bring hands-on experience with FAA cases, aircraft deals and accident lawsuits to clients throughout Dallas and the surrounding area. For personal injury and wrongful death cases handled on a contingency fee basis, you pay attorney fees only if we recover money on your behalf. You may still owe other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness charges and investigation expenses, no matter how the case turns out.
