Aviation Law

The firm’s interest in aviation and aerospace has led us to keep and maintain a rich collection of laws on air business, to wit:

  • The Chicago Convention of 1944 on … International Civil Aviation;
  • The Chicago Convention of 1944 on … International Civil Aviation;
  • The Geneva Convention of 19/06/1948 on the International Recognition of Rights Affecting Aircrafts;

  • The Montreal Convention of 23/09/1971
