Aviation Law

Aviation Law encompasses a wide variety of aviation related legal situations.  While it is impossible for one attorney to be an expert in all areas, Mr. Feldman provides legal services in many areas of aviation law.

 Aviation Employment and Labor

Grievance Arbitration - Mr. Feldman's experience as a line pilot, union leader and attorney make him uniquely qualified to represent flight crewmembers before system boards and third party arbitrators.

Employment Disputes - With the 1995 Pilot Records Improvement Act came the need for each pilot to pay close attention to their employment records. A dispute with an employer should only cost you your job, not your career. Even when the job is lost your career may depend on sound legal advice.

Air Carrier Operations

Company Investigations - Recent events have shown us how aggressive the FAA can be in protecting the political needs of its executives and managers rather than the safety of the flying public. Even the biggest airlines have been victimized by FAA overreaching. As with individual certificate actions a proper response to the very first contact is essential to a satisfactory outcome.

Transportation Security - The Department of Homeland Security through the TSA and other entities continues to work on ways to further restrict your right to fly through intrusive investigations and complex reporting requirements. As new regulations are published Mr. Feldman analyzes them and describes just what the legal speak means on a practical level.

Certificate Actions

As a former flight instructor, charter pilot, and line pilot, Mr. Feldman is keenly aware of how easy it is to receive unwanted FAA attention. Whether you are a pilot, a mechanic or an air traffic controller, your license is on the line each and every day, even when you're off duty. With their very first investigatory letter the FAA is trying to frighten you and misdirect your attention.  A proper response is absolutely necessary to assure the best outcome.
