HFW

HFW advises insurers, reinsurers, aircraft manufacturers, and aerospace companies on high-profile aviation disputes arising from geopolitical events, war risk exposures, and significant asset losses. The practice is led by Edward Spencer, an expert in insurance coverage disputes, and David Brotherton, an aviation finance specialist, who advises on leasing, debt finance, and cross-border restructuring matters. Zohar Zik routinely counsels airlines and aircraft manufacturers on transactional, commercial and regulatory issues. Mark Waters handles contentious and non-contentious aviation matters, with his broad practice including major accidents and commercial disputes as well as contractual and licensing arrangements.
