About

Provided by FISCHER (FBC & Co.)

FBC’s team has extensive experience in representing airlines (including major airlines and low-cost carriers), insurers, importers and exporters, freight forwarders, and online travel service providers in the full range of matters encompassed by aviation, maritime and tourism law.

Members of the FBC team have been active participants in both the Israeli legislative process as well as in industry organizations, including IATA, in regard to aviation and tourism law. FBC's clients benefit directly from this involvement, as the team is well-positioned to provide them with ongoing up-to-date regulatory advice and to advise them promptly about pending developments in these fields.

We routinely pull together our understanding of commercial litigation, class actions, corporate and regulatory matters with a deep knowledge of leasing, other commercial transactions, competition, labor relations and taxation to ensure that every aspect of a client’s goal is addressed.
