Washington, D.C. Airplane Accident Attorneys

Video Transcript

Allan Siegel: 

We are a personal injury law firm. That is the only type of work that this law firm does. If you were injured as a result of somebody else’s negligence, then that’s a case that we would handle. So what does that include? Car crash cases. It includes bicycle crash cases, scooter cases, pedestrian accident cases, truck crash cases. It includes bus cases, all of those things, but it also includes situations where you might be hurt on somebody else’s premises. For example, maybe you were hurt at a business, maybe you slipped and fell because they didn’t maintain their floor in a safe condition.

Ira Sherman: 

The insurance company knows that we are aggressive, we are creative. We have the funds to fund a case and hire experts, and as a result, they distinguish us in a category of law firms that they need to know and do know that we can take the case from day one all the way through trial successfully.

Stephen Ollar: 

Insurance is an important factor, not just the insurance coverage on the vehicle that struck you, but also if you have additional insurance coverage that may compensate you if you have very serious injuries. The degree of your injury is important.

Joseph Cammarata: 

Our approach is victim oriented in the sense that we are concerned for the wellbeing of our clients. We do everything to better their lot in life. A person that’s injured in a crash or bike accidents or pedestrian accidents, their life typically gets turned upside down. And we try to right that balance. We make sure that they’re getting the medical treatment that they need, that they’re following through, and that we understand the medicine, we understand just what the person is going through so we can articulate that. We could present that effectively.

Allan Siegel: 

If you’ve been injured as a result of somebody else’s negligence or as a result of somebody else’s intentional act, that’s a case that we would handle and that’s a case that you should call us to consult with us on.

Representing Victims Across the DC Metro Area

Accidents involving airplanes are not very common, but they do happen. In cases where these accidents are preventable, injured victims and families may have the right to pursue financial compensation for their losses by filing a personal injury claim against the responsible party, which may include commercial airline companies, independent pilots, equipment manufacturers, and others responsible for airplane safety.

Aviation Accidents Cases We Handle

Our legal team is prepared to handle a wide range of airplane accidents, including those involving private planes, chattered jets, and commercial airliners. We understand the complex nature of these claims and are familiar with the various federal agencies that investigate these accidents, such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). Because there are so many factors at play in airplane accidents, assistance from an experienced lawyer is crucial.

Examples of the airplane accidents we can handle include those caused by:

• Pilot error / negligence
• Inadequate aircraft maintenance
• Defective parts/equipment malfunction
• Dangerous weather conditions
• Takeoff or landing accidents
• In-flight accidents

Whatever the circumstances of your accident may be, your ability to recover financial compensation will depend on proving that the negligence or wrongful acts of another caused your injuries. The recent tragic American Eagle Flight 5342 collision with a US Army Black Hawk Helicopter over the Potomac River reminds us all that these tragedies can strike at any time.

Our legal team works diligently to investigate accidents thoroughly, determine fault and liability, and pursue the maximum compensation possible through trial verdicts or settlement negotiations.
