G Quotes “The settlement was reached in the courtroom just before jury selection. There is no doubt that a strong message was conveyed to [airline] as a result of the efforts in the [client] case and I am confident the business of regional operations at [airline] is much safer today. “On behalf of my co-counsel and I, we thank you very much for your outstanding and compelling professional services. You stand out as among the best and brightest in your field. It has been our privilege to associate with someone whose work ethic and reputation exemplifies the highest levels of integrity, honesty and credibility. Your detailed analysis of the facts together with your report positively influenced the outcome of this case. “We look forward to the opportunity and privilege of working with you in future cases. Again, on behalf of my colleagues and the families, we thank you for your exemplary work.” Jamie Lebovitz, Plaintiff Attorney “Your help was essential to our case. With your guidance, I was able to better comprehend the various regulations and deal with the issues being raised by the FAA. I also was better able to depose [the witness], whose testimony was critical to the defense, and to prepare [the client] in a way that he came off as a credible business person not looking to cause trouble, but simply trying to get information that the flight crew was not providing.” Defense Attorney “Rigler can bring to bear his network of former FBI agents/pilots to find your aviation witness and ensure that you get the cooperation you need. He has made it a point to learn how aviation litigation works. He can also consult with you to help you develop your case. When appropriate, he can serve as your aviation expert witness and coordinate your demonstrative evidence.” “I recently settled an extremely difficult case and made a client happy, based in large part on the fine work done by G Force." Philip Kolczynski, Aviation Lawyer "Your [safety] audit of our facility led to the best of all possible results: Our client was never named in the ensuing litigation." Defense Attorney "When I need immediate, accurate, and tough-to-find facts, there is only one source I turn to: G Force, Erik Rigler." John C. "Rusty" Allman, Plaintiff Attorney “Your expert assistance was invaluable throughout the various stages of our case, from understanding important aviation and security issues, to making our client better prepared for his deposition, to assisting us with our fact-gathering, to producing a first-rate written report." “Our opposition’s defenses, which seemed formidable when they were raised because of our lack of understanding of the industry, seemed easily defeatable once we enlisted your help. Most important, you and your staff were incredibly professional, helpful, and responsive. All in all, one of the best experiences I have had with an expert witness.” "Your assistance in the recent [city] air crash case was a huge help. The learning curve on the training and operation of the aircraft was smoothed for all by your survey of the available training facilities. Your videotape of the gear retraction times and spoiler actuation was excellent. I most appreciated your prompt response and to-the-point affidavit, which was used to avoid a summary motion. “Your experience and expertise with the man, machine, and environment would be an asset in any aviation lawsuit to client, lawyer, judge or jury. I look forward to working with you on any future cases." William H. Wimsatt, Plaintiff Attorney “Erik was an indispensable help to our case. His assistance was invaluable during the factual investigation, witness interviews and virtually all technical aspects of the case. Ultimately his opinions and conclusions contributed to a great result for our clients.” Joseph Bosco, Attorney “Our case involved the death of two foreign military officers whose plane crashed as a result of the failure of an improper part shipped from the engine manufacturer. Each piece of information I received from G Force proved accurate and timely, leading to a very successful award for my clients without the need for a trial. His report skills were excellent.” Jorge Machin, Plaintiff Attorney “In a world where a cell phone seems to be the only requirement for claiming to be an ‘expert’ in aviation, Rigler and G Force, Inc. are the real McCoy.” Brian Favero, Chief Pilot (Retired) “My client fell from an improperly designed airplane cargo loader, experiencing catastrophic injuries. The case required reducing the complex design defect to a clear, simple explanation. My fear was that a jury might not follow it. G Force investigated the case and offered a concise, easy-to-follow explanation of what happened. Following Mr. Rigler’s deposition, the defense immediately requested mediation, leading to a very satisfactory settlement. He was always available, returned phone calls, did his own work and wrote an excellent report.” James Hilbert, Hilbert Law Firm “Erik Rigler and I worked together as FBI Special Agent/Pilots. I found him to be a skilled pilot and safety specialist, one of the agency’s best. He was also a Bureau pilot instructor whose leadership was an inspiration to all FBI pilots.” Tom Porter, FBI Agent/Pilot (Retired) “Erik Rigler is an invaluable resource. His professional background and knowledge of the aviation industry uniquely position him to obtain not only the information requested but also information that you may not have known was available. This, combined with his integrity and work ethic, make him an expert you don't want the other side to have." Mark A. Randolph "We are happy to report that the above-referenced case has settled on very favorable terms. The client is extremely pleased with the outcome. Your work was an important part of the defense of this case." Richard Caldwell, Defense Attorney "I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the time and effort you put into the case. Your help was invaluable and your testimony was obviously vital to our defense." David N. Kitner, Defense Attorney "I found you to be extraordinarily responsive as an expert consultant, knowledgeable in the field and very dedicated to both my client's interest and to determining the cause of the accident." John H. "Buzz" Tarlow, Plaintiff Attorney "Erik Rigler's outstanding relationship with members of the NTSB allowed him to provide me invaluable information during the preliminary investigation of our case. Mr. Rigler goes above and beyond the normal role as investigator. He provides extremely insightful comments and analysis, which greatly assisted us in preparation of our case. I cannot imagine handling an aviation disaster without Rigler on our team." Robert J. Schreck, Plaintiff Attorney “Erik Rigler is the consummate professional. His expert report articulately
synthesized key issues, and his expert deposition demonstrated thorough preparation
and cutting- edge knowledge of the inner workings of the aviation industry.
Mr. Rigler’s wealth of experience with pilot’s authority and airline
security issues pivotally shaped the theories and defenses of our case.” Defense Attorneys “In the words of my 10-year-old daughter, ‘You Rock!’ ” Edward Q. Rainey, Plaintiff Attorney “I enjoyed having the opportunity to work with you on this matter,
and am looking forward to working with you again in the near future. Your
consulting advice in this case was of great assistance. We would not have
accomplished a settlement without your expertise.” Jim Jackson, Plaintiff Attorney “You arrived… with your sleeves rolled up and eager to get to
work. Your expertise was invaluable not only in the subject area in which
you testified, but also in numerous other areas for which the team needed
assistance and guidance. You worked tirelessly to prepare for your testimony
and through that testimony, you were able to convey a critical part of the
defense case to the jury…. It was a pleasure having you work by our
side.” Kenneth P. Troccoli, Assistant Federal Public Defender “The carrier is going to pay up! This is in no small part due to your
excellent work, done on very short notice, and thank you very, very much.
This result spares the family the ordeal of a trial, and they are obviously
very pleased.” Edward L. Barry, Plaintiff Attorney “You were an invaluable asset both in prosecuting our client’s
liability case and responding to the declaratory action filed by the defendant’s
insurer. Your knowledge of the industry and relationships with agency investigators,
local law enforcement and other aviation experts provided us with an early
advantage. Consequently, we were able to simplify a complicated case and
reach a favorable outcome for our client.” Brian C. Bramblett, Plaintiff Attorney |
