Airplane
accidents are avoidable tragedies.
Airplane accidents are often avoidable
tragedies that result from negligent
acts or ommissions, or from the
failure of a defective part.
A
party responsible for an airplane
accident must be held accountable.
Aviation disasters demand immediate
investigation. We combine scientific
investigation with creative legal
strategies to determine the cause
of an aviation crash. This enables
us to pursue effectively our mission
of recovering full and fair compensation
for aviation crash victims and their
families.
Aviation
disaster cases require familiarity
with Federal Aviation Administration
guidelines and other federal laws,
meteorological reports, cockpit
voice recorders, flight data recorders
and pilot training issues.
What
To Do Following a Plane Crash
- Have
your own reconstruction team quickly
review physical evidence; The
National Transportation Safety
Board (NTSB) does an excellent
job in its investigation, but
you and your lawyer are usually
not allowed to participate in
the investigation Call the NTSB
and ask to be informed of any
investigation developments;
- Obtain
names, addresses and telephone
numbers of all witnesses. Photograph
the accident scene and any visible
injuries (cuts, bruises). Professional
photographs are preferable;
- Talk
to no one about the crash without
the consent of your personal lawyer.
Sign nothing without consulting
a lawyer. You may expect airline
and insurance company representatives
to contact you immediately following
the crash; and
- Obtain
and keep receipts for all expenses
relating to the disaster.
Damages
which a victim and the victim's
family may be entitled to recover
include:
-
hospital and medical expenses;
- both
past and future lost earnings;
