Aviation Law Committee

Description
Litigation arising from aviation disasters can be extremely challenging and may be made even more complex when the disaster is in the context of international transportation. This international panel will discuss a comparison of the law of different countries on substantive issues of liability and damages (including choice-of-law matters) and also on special procedures for handling hundreds of claims arising from a common disaster. Differences between litigation arising from domestic and international aviation disasters will also be discussed.
