How Our Aviation Attorneys Can Help.

Barnett Law Offices can provide pre-submission consultation with the pilot that includes a discussion of the proper and accepted reporting requirements. We make sure that the airman provides all of the pertinent information to avoid the strict consequences (that can include suspension or revocation of a medical certificate, fines, and criminal prosecution) that stem from incorrect or false statements in support of an application for a medical certificate. So, if you have questions about DUI and FAA Medical Certificates, contact our pilot lawyers at 800-578-5512.
