AirAdvisor is dedicated to ensuring air travelers receive the compensation they are entitled to for flight disruptions, including delays, cancellations, missed connections, or airline-related issues like overbooking. We have successfully processed over 450,000 claims, earning a high volume of reviews and operating in 20 languages, with plans to expand to 30 languages this year. As a fast-growing startup with a clear vision for international expansion, we aim to reach 1 million claims by the end of 2026.
We are seeking a highly skilled and dedicated lawyer specializing in consumer flight claims (typically via small claims procedure) to lead in-court collections, owning or wanting to open their own boutique legal firm in Italy. Pre-court collections are managed by a team of paralegals. Your responsibilities will include filing batches of court cases to recover compensation or reimbursement of Out-of-Pocket Expenses (OPE) incurred by passengers, and ticket refunds. Currently, we handle EU261/UK261 claims for flight delays, cancellations, and denied boarding, with baggage claims to be launched soon.
If the law or judge rules the case unfairly, escalation to change the law may be considered. PR opportunities regarding court victories and legal issues may also arise. This role is ideal for high performers with strong litigation experience and a passion for advocating consumer rights in the airline industry.
The candidate must be free from conflicts of interest, able to litigate against different airlines.
Requirements: A valid solicitor’s license and legal insurance. A law degree from an accredited institution. Experience with small claims, consumer rights, or aviation law is a plus but not required. Knowledge of relevant consumer protection laws and aviation regulations is also a plus. Proven success in in-court collection, strong analytical and problem-solving skills, ability to manage caseloads, prioritize tasks, meet deadlines, and track statute of limitations. Experience in automating claims management processes is advantageous.
Responsibilities: Preparing and filing court cases against airlines, responding to legal defenses, enforcing court decisions, conducting legal research, negotiating settlements, maintaining case records, and staying updated on relevant laws and regulations.
Soft skills: Professional, ambitious, open to testing AI solutions, self-aware, honest, responsible, results-oriented, initiative-driven, capable of managing multiple projects, and possessing excellent communication skills.
We offer: Remote-first culture with flexible hours, potential relocation, professional growth opportunities, involvement in global expansion, dynamic work environment, supportive team culture, and an international team across 11 countries.
Job Type: Agreement on Services / Self-Employed Consultant Contract.
