We take particular pride in this practice because many lawyers at the Beasley Firm have been commercial pilots and flight instructors. Jim Beasley Jr., a commercially rated pilot with twenty years of flight time, is one of only twelve civilians permitted to fly with the United States Air Force as well as an internationally recognized airshow pilot. He has thousands ofd hours in high performance World War II fighter aircraft, and with his P-51 "Mustang" is the lead pilot for "The Horsemen," an aggressive and exciting formation aerobatic act -- watch a video of it here: http://www.airshowbuzz.com/videos/view.php?v=f09c04b8

We know how airplanes work, how to fly them, and how air traffic is supposed to be controlled. We’ve won multi-million dollar verdicts because we know when an aircraft designer or a pilot is to blame for an accident.

Our aviation expertise was an important part of our successful lawsuit assessing responsibility for the September 11 attacks. We have decades of experience representing victims of the most serious and high-profile aviation accidents, including the accident that took the life of Senator John Heinz.
