Why Hire an Aviation Expert?

Aviation is as unique as law. Aerodynamic and mechanical laws and applications are always the same, yet ever-changing. The job of an attorney is to know and apply the law.  Colonel Lawrence’s job is to assist the attorney by applying his extensive knowledge and experience in the peculiarities of aviation.

He has spent years testing these concepts on both fixed and rotary wing aircraft.
