Practice Areas

aviation accidents

There are multiple reasons why an airplane, helicopter or glider crashes or collides with another aircraft. The possibilities include defective design of the aircraft or a component, flawed maintenance, pilot error, weather or air traffic control problems, or a combination thereof. Aviation accident litigation requires proficiency in the relevant substantive and procedural laws of multiple jurisdictions, technical know-how and a practical understanding of aerodynamics, flight procedures and application of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. Effective aviation accident litigation requires a prompt and thorough investigation by attorneys and expert technical and operational consultants, identification and preservation of vital evidence and thorough analysis of the available evidence in order to establish "what caused this disaster to happen?"
