Understanding Aviation Accidents And Negligence
Airplane accidents can seriously harm passengers and ground bystanders alike. Often, negligence plays a role in aircraft and helicopter accidents, directly causing injuries or contributing to them:
- Pilot error (fatigue, intoxication, inexperience)
- Improper aircraft maintenance
- Defective parts
- Air traffic control errors
A thorough investigation by a reputable lawyer can help determine the specific cause of the accident, pointing the way to a legal remedy.
The Devastating Impact Of Aviation Crashes
The consequences of plane crashes can be catastrophic, often resulting in severe injuries like these:
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Burns
- Amputations
- Wrongful death
Associated consequences include emotional and financial strain, high medical costs, lost income, and psychological trauma (anxiety, PTSD).
Seeking Compensation After An Aviation Accident
When negligence causes or contributes to aircraft accident injuries, you may be entitled to compensation, such as:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Wrongful death benefits (for families of those who died)
Mass torts can be a powerful tool for holding negligent parties accountable and obtaining the compensation you deserve. We have considerable experience managing mass torts and individual cases.
