When He’s Not in the Courtroom, The Beasley Firm’s Managing Partner Takes to the Skies

When not in the courtroom, attorney Jim Beasley Jr. allows his passions to take flight. The managing partner of The Beasley Firm followed in his late father’s footsteps pursuing a career in law and flying warbirds on the side. The latest issue of Aeroplane Magazine explores this unique dichotomy shared by both father and son.

At The Beasley Firm, we are proud to recognize the diverse accomplishments of our legal team.

Carrying on a Family Tradition: A Love of Law and Flying

Mr. Beasley not only holds a medical degree and is an award-winning trial attorney known for his work in complex civil litigation, but he is also a seasoned pilot and founding member of the world-renowned Horsemen. 

His affection for historic aviation comes from his father, Jim Beasley Sr. The senior Beasley was an avid pilot and warbird enthusiast. He founded The Beasley Firm in 1958 while ensuring to take time for his beloved hobby. 

Jim Beasley Jr. now holds the reins at the firm, paying tribute to his late father with his unyielding advocacy for his clients and unapologetic love of flying. Like his father before him, Jim Beasley restores and flies vintage warplanes, including a P-51 Mustang featured at airshows across the globe. 

An Unparalleled Legacy of Success in Aviation-Related Accidents

The hobby enjoyed by father and son translates well into the courtroom. Mr. Beasley’s understanding of planes has helped him secure multiple multimillion-dollar recoveries for victims of aviation-related accidents. 

Together, the Beasleys won a $104 million verdict for families of those killed in the September 11 terror attacks. The recovery stands as the only September 11 verdict in history. In addition, The Beasley Firm successfully represented the family of a man killed in a plane accident after proving that a defective part on the Cessna caused the crash. The result was a $29 million verdict against one of the world’s largest private aircraft manufacturers.

Respected In and Out of the Courtroom

Mr. Beasley’s dedication in and out of the courtroom is evidenced by his notable case results and by his zeal for flying these historic gems. Not only is he a member of the storied close-formation aerobatics team known as the Horsemen, but he is also an original Heritage Flight pilot, which brings old and new fighter aircraft together for stunning performances throughout the year.

Attorney Beasley is a well-respected litigator and an accomplished aviator. He is one of a select few civilian pilots chosen by the military to fly these high-performance World War II-era fighters at airshows alongside their modern counterparts.
