MM&J has handled aviation accident cases since 1984 involving a
wide variety of aviation subjects. Each of the partners and several
associates hold various FAA pilot certificates from private pilot up to
Airline Transport Pilot certificate. Jim Johnson flew carrier based jet
aircraft for the United States Marine Corps. Garry Montanari holds a
degree in Aerospace Engineering, previously working for NASA and
Northrop. And, because of the significant number of aviation
accident cases handled by our firm, we are intimately familiar with
the practices and procedures of accident investigation by the NTSB
and the FAA.
As described more thoroughly in the biographies section, our
attorneys have expanded their professional legal and a vocational
flight experience through many related associations and industry
groups. MM&J attorneys use all of these attributes to the benefit of
our clients in the defense of aviation related cases.
