Aircraft Accidents
“Airplane crashes often involve one or more negligent parties and are complex to investigate and prepare. We work with a network of air accident reconstruction professionals and specialists to make sure the evidence is clearly presented in your favor.”
- Partner, Lynn Johnson
Pursuing Proper Compensation for Aviation Injuries
If a loved one in your family has been involved in an accident while flying in a commercial (common carrier) or recreational aircraft there may be several parties who should be held liable for the accident. Besides pilot error, aircraft accidents are often caused by:
- Defective aircraft parts/equipment
- Improper ground maintenance
- Air traffic control errors
- Unsafe loading
