Airplane Accidents

Aviation disasters are catastrophic events that can lead to extensive property damage, severe injuries, and loss of life. Fortunately, aviation accidents are not that common, but even one accident per year can impact dozens of families. Aviation accidents can include massive passenger jet crashes, but more often includes small private chartered jets. These smaller aircraft often have pilots with less experience than passenger jet pilots. A small deviation from normal flying conditions could prove catastrophic for an inexperienced pilot. Other crashes may occur due to pilot error, pilot intoxication, or airline and manufacturer negligence. The airline industry has a high duty of care to protect its passengers through ensuring the safety of the aircraft, as well as the appropriate experience of the pilot. The failure to guarantee the safety of passengers could result in a claim for damages against the airline and the pilot.

Personal Injury Claims

Aviation accidents may sometimes go beyond state personal injury claims and may fall within federal jurisdiction. An experienced Richmond personal injury lawyer will be able to assist you in determining the method and format of your aviation accident claim.

During aviation accidents, attorneys will look to all the facts of the case in determining the best route to take for a personal injury claim. The accident could have been the result of pilot error, manufacturer error, or something unrelated.

However, the details of your case will impact the amount in damages you can receive. If your accident falls within federal law, you may be subject to certain limits.
