Newport News Aviation Lawyer

Work With an Attorney Who is Also a Pilot

Aviation law is a specialized field that requires an attorney who can navigate the regulatory minefield at the federal and state level, and who is comfortable advocating for the client at an informal conference or a full-blown trial. It also helps if your aviation law attorney has some experience with aircraft.

One of our partners, W. Hunter Old, is a rotary-wing pilot with a commercial instrument rating who has focused his practice on aviation matters throughout Virginia for more than a decade. He is a former military pilot and also serves as a panel attorney for the Legal Services Plan offered by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association. He is a member of the Virginia Airport Operators Council and the Lawyer-Pilots Bar Association, as well as the AOPA.
