Aviation Insurance Claims & Liability Disputes

Navigating Aircraft Damage & Hull Insurance Claims

Aircraft hull insurance is essential for protecting operators, leasing companies, and private owners from financial losses due to accidents, structural damage, or total loss of an aircraft. However, disputes often arise over coverage denials, delayed claim payments, or disagreements on repair costs and liability allocation. We assist clients in filing and negotiating insurance claims, ensuring compliance with policy terms, and challenging unjust denials. Our legal expertise helps aviation businesses recover rightful compensation while avoiding prolonged disputes with insurers.

Managing Passenger & Third-Party Liability Claims

Aviation liability insurance covers claims related to passenger injuries, baggage losses, and third-party property damage. Airlines and operators may face litigation for delayed flights, overbooked services, or incidents resulting in passenger harm, leading to compensation claims under international conventions such as the Montreal Convention. We provide legal guidance on interpreting liability limits, defending against excessive claims, and ensuring fair settlements while keeping operations compliant with global air passenger rights laws.

Handling Business Interruption & Force Majeure Claims

Operational disruptions caused by weather events, geopolitical issues, or regulatory shutdowns can lead to major financial losses for airlines and aviation service providers. Insurance coverage for business interruption and force majeure events is often disputed due to ambiguities in contract wording, exclusions in policies, or conflicting liability claims. We help aviation businesses assess their entitlements, challenge unfair claim rejections, and negotiate settlements that reflect actual operational damages. Our proactive approach ensures that clients are legally protected against unforeseen risks.
