Questions our clients ask
- A lessor wants to recover an aircraft grounded in Tunisia after the airline defaults: what are the options?
- It depends on the lease, the registry filings and the governing law. We check the lessor's rights, registered security interests and any claims that may attach to the aircraft, such as airport charges, then combine protective measures with negotiation with the airline and the authorities to secure redelivery.
- A European aerospace supplier subcontracts part of its production to Tunisia: how should the contract be secured?
- We cover the sector's quality and traceability requirements, ownership of tooling and drawings, confidentiality, penalties and governing law, taking into account Tunisia's fully exporting company regime.
