At Russo Law, our attorneys provide help to clients who have either been injured in an airplane accident or who lose a loved one in a plane crash.  Airplane accidents frequently involve a number of causes and a sequence of events that was fateful.  Therefore, what brought a plane down is not necessarily one thing that could have or should have been done differently.  Because of this, it is important to have legal counsel who approaches an aviation accident with an open mind toward putting the pieces of the puzzle together rather than latching onto one or two things.

 

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will normally do their own investigation into a plane crash and will issue their own report.  They may identify a number of causes and violations that led to the crash.  They sometimes test out equipment after a crash to determine whether it was functioning correctly at the time of the accident.  That initial investigation is a key to an aviation accident case, however, it is not the only determining factor in who to sue and what to sue them for.  A number of legal issues often arise in aviation cases.  Sometimes a product manufacturer has blame for the accident while others may be due to inadequate training or maintenance.  In other cases, pilot error or violation of FAA or other flight regulations may be the sole cause.  All of these angles can be evaluated by an experienced lawyer.

 

If you or a family member has suffered an injury or lost a loved one in a plane crash, please contact Russo Law to discuss the facts of your case. Each case is unique and deserves its own attention.  A case evaluation is always free for aviation accident cases.
