AIRPLANE ACCIDENTS

Federal agencies set safety standards for pilot conduct, flight operations, and aircraft manufacturers. Because of these safety standards, air travel is generally a safe means of transportation. However, when accidents do occur, they often result in death. The most common causes of airplane accidents include:

  • pilot error;
  • faulty equipment;
  • violating Federal Aviation Administration regulations;
  • structural or design problems;
  • flight Service Station employees not performing their jobs well;
  • federal Air Traffic Controllers mistakes; or
  • someone's failure to choose the correct aircraft.

Figuring out who is responsible for airplane accidents can make these cases very complicated. Possible guilty parties may include negligent owners or operators of the plane, or the plane's manufacturer. Maybe the pilot or the crew of the airplane, or the air traffic controllers did not do their jobs correctly. We can help you find out who is responsible for the injury. You or a loved one may be entitled to compensation for:

  • punitive damages;
  • past and future medical expenses;
  • emotional distress; and
  • lost wages or lost earning capacity.
