Testimonials
It is important to us to have attorneys in foreign jurisdictions with aircraft and/or aviation finance experience. We have been happy with our L2b lawyers.
-Laura Ice, Textron Financial Corp.
I trust Ulrich’s judgment – his advice is both legally on point and commercially savvy. In reality, Ulrich functions more like an in-house attorney, since he acts on our behalf with very little supervision or direction required.
I enjoy working with Khachaturyan (of Asters) he is easy to work with and he is “quick to respond. – Chambers Global
I am fortunate to have found Ulrich. He is one of a select group of outside attorneys on whom I absolutely rely.
