Airlines Have Assertive Attorneys — You Need One In Your Corner

Airlines have been known to strengthen their defense through the work of investigators posing as grief counselors and support group advisers whose function is to help promote early settlements for low amounts on wrongful death claims. 

In commercial aviation accidents, we make a prompt and thorough review of such factors bearing on liability as the following:

  • FAA regulations and NTSB investigation protocols
  • Safety checklists and failsafe sequences
  • Pilot training logs, flying logs, and employment history
  • Pilot error or negligence
  • Aircraft inspection and maintenance logs
  • Manufacturer’s safety records
  • Surface bulletins concerning weather
  • Air traffic control performance
  • Executive decisions at financially troubled airlines that might have overextended flight personnel or compromised safety
