Norton Rose Fulbright

The practice is headed by Robin Springthorpe and Charlotte Winter, who are frequently involved in high-profile aviation litigation and arbitration. Patrick Farrell is exceptionally capable in handling cross-border asset repossessions, while Zayba Drabu is a key contact on asset finance-related disputes. Annabelle Wheeler advises airlines on a variety of commercial and regulatory matters. The team is supported by Serene Allen and Lucy Frost, who handle contentious contractual issues.
