The Firm Syed Sajjad Ali Shah specializes in advising aircraft financiers, lessors, and operators on the preparation, registration, and enforcement of IDERA agreements under the Cape Town Convention framework. IDERA is a crucial legal tool that allows secured parties to irrevocably authorize the deregistration and export of aircraft in cases of default or repossession.
Our legal team drafts IDERA documents that comply with Pakistan’s ratification of the Cape Town Convention and local civil aviation laws. We guide clients through the registration process with the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) and the International Registry, ensuring that security interests in aircraft are legally perfected and enforceable.
In enforcement scenarios, we assist lessors and financiers in exercising their rights to deregister and export aircraft swiftly and lawfully, avoiding prolonged litigation and operational disruptions. We also advise on risk management strategies related to IDERA to protect client investments in high-value aviation assets.
Syed Sajjad Ali Shah’s expertise in IDERA helps aviation financiers and lessors secure their rights and expedite asset recovery, strengthening confidence in Pakistan’s aviation leasing and financing market.
