The aviation practice at HFW is a ‘number one contact point’ for clients seeking advice regarding finance and leases, commercial agreements, regulatory compliance, and insurance litigation. It works closely with the firm’s French team, and has growing environmental expertise. The team’s ’exceptionally knowledgeable‘ head Pierre Frühling works across Brussels and Paris, often acting on high-profile litigation for airline clients and their insurers, along with international regulatory matters and large-scale transactions: he is experienced in assisting airlines with restructurings, including State aid issues. For environmental matters, including carbon offset schemes, Alix d’Arjuzon is a go-to.
