Our attorneys and experts
intimately understand the inner working of the federal agencies -
National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation
Administration - charged with investigating air disasters and
regulating air carriers. Decades of experience in negotiating the
complex set of federal rules and laws that regulate the airline
industry give Nolan Law Group a great advantage in this
ever-challenging area of law.
Official reports issued after completion of an investigation do not
assign liability, but do provide insight into the probable causes of
an accident. Nolan Law Group's staff includes attorneys who are active
pilots and aeronautic engineers. In addition, we employ experts and
investigators to assist in analyzing the information and build a case
for liability to the proper entity or, in most cases, entities.
Whether it is the airplane manufacturer, the airline, a parts
manufacturer or air traffic control, we find the facts that build a
winning lawsuit.
