Very helpful

I met with Peyton regarding the formation of a LLC for my job as a flight instructor. Sharing a common background in aviation, Peyton was very helpful in explaining my options (S Corp vs. LLC, etc) and what would be necessary for both, as well as the responsibilities required afterward. His backgrou...nd as a tax attorney, as well, was very helpful with regards to being an independent contractor. I haven't had any tax issues but I would definitely feel comfortable recommending him for aviation issues. I feel like I took the right first step in meeting with Peyton.

Flight School related case

Peyton Robinson was the most efficient and informative toward my case. He has several years of experience. I am confident in his representation, particularly because he is a licensed and experienced pilot. It is important to emphasize, he is a well rounded professional. I contacted Peyton Robinson ...for a flight school related case. In this case, my goal was to recover the remainder of a purchased flight time block. With the information I had received: better rate advertisement on same aircraft and question of the legality of agreement, I was confident in disputing this matter with Peyton Robinson. His research, experience and representation was professional. I am very grateful to have found him in Utah. Any pilot in Utah, who desires representation on an aviation related case or FAA enforcement action related case, I highly recommend Peyton Robinson. Peyton Robinson is a professional. He is humble, friendly, and has affordable rates for aviators. Overall rating--definitely top representation among Salt Lake City lawyers.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
