asb law has retained top tier rankings for its Aviation, Employment and Insolvency teams in the 2009 edition of Legal 500, one of the most authoritative guides to the UK’s leading law firms.  The rankings are derived from in-depth independent research amongst clients, other professional advisers and asb’s peers in the industry.

All three teams have maintained their positions for several years, and despite fierce competition asb’s aviation team remains the only south east firm to achieve a top tier ranking.

Long-standing partner Alina Nosek heads both the commercial and aviation teams at asb law:  “Independent endorsements for the work we do are obviously very rewarding.  Our services span the whole range of requirements that companies in the sector might need from buying, selling or leasing aircraft and engine parts, to supply agreements, contract disputes and employment issues.  We work hard to understand the environment our clients inhabit, and the fact that they praise us for thinking business and not simply quoting the law proves how important that is.”

asb’s aviation sector clients include businesses representing every aspect of the industry, from international carriers such as easyJet, to ground handling companies such as Swissport, and components suppliers such as Avtrade.

According to Legal 500 the Insolvency team, led by Andy Taylor, is considered ‘second to none’, and the Employment team led by Greg Burgess, is described as ‘benchmark setting’.

asb law offers a full range of commercial and private client services from its regional centres in Crawley and Maidstone.
