Ed Kammerer’s strategic approach enables his clients to pursue their business aircraft ownership and operating objectives.
Ed describes his practice as helping to improve the lives of busy people, saving them time by facilitating their access to aircraft.

Ed‘s home office is based in Greenberg Traurig’s New York office, and periodically spends time in Boston.
In private practice for the last 20 years, Ed has previously served as in-house counsel for three leading equipment finance companies, including affiliates of two major banks and one leading insurance company. Ed had responsibility for the development of standard form documents.
