FOCUS Product Liability and Personal Injury Howard Acosta has a motto. “The impossible takes a little longer.” Howard was recently named Florida’s Most Tenacious Attorney. He was a United States Navy P3c Aircraft Commander and accumulated 3,000 flying hours – mostly at night and in bad weather while searching for Russian submarines in the Arctic and other inhospitable waters. In Aviation Law, very few attorneys have had such a successful and influential career. Howard was lead trial attorney for the F-16 wire-bundle fire case featured on 60 Minutes. He was lead plaintiff attorney in the Navy S-3 flight control malfunction case. He also handled a B-1 Bomber accident and a B-52 fuel tank explosion case. He has been successful in beating the Military Contractor Defense by developing evidence that the military really did not approve the pertinent specification in the design process.
