Pressbox (Press Release) -
The Corporate Angel Network is a special focus of one Fort Lauderdale, Florida, aviation attorney.
While many aviation attorneys spend time lecturing at worthy conventions about industry issues such as tax, regulatory and risk management, many of them also promote a worthy a cause; a humanitarian cause that makes an enormous difference in the lives of others, the Corporate Angel Network.
Stewart H. Lapayowker of the Stewart H. Lapayowker P.A., firm in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, knows how easy it is to get caught up in the rules and regulations that drive the aircraft industry and has spent time explaining the intricacies of business aircraft transactions and other topics. Topics that would make most people wonder what language he was speaking, like cabotage and export certificates of airworthiness.
These areas of aviation law and others, like importing and exporting aircraft, are the mainstays of Lapayowker’s law firm, along with other items such as value added tax (VAT) and dealing with European Union customs and cabotage issues.
While this may all sound rather exotic, Lapayowker has a reputation for taking the complex and making it understandable, whether or not he is dealing with international business aircraft transactions or other aircraft transactions at home in the U.S. “Owning an aircraft is often an exercise in frustration and having to become grudgingly familiar with tax issues. This is what our firm focuses on, and we offer support to many aircraft owning clients and their tax professionals,” added Lapayowker.
When the demands of the office permit, Lapayowker spends time devoting his energies to letting his clients know of another cause in which he firmly believes. “ We actively encourage every business aircraft owner that we represent to consider working with Corporate Angel Network,” outlined Lapayowker. Corporate Angel Network matches cancer patients with business aircraft operators so empty seats may be used to fly patients and their families to get lifesaving treatment.
In a world gone hectic with the frantic pace of daily living, it’s quite refreshing to see a dedicated legal firm committed to making a real difference in the lives of others, who would not otherwise have access to aircraft that transparently become lifesaving tools.
