New Jersey Airplane and Aviation Accidents Attorneys

If you or your loved one was involved in an aviation accident, the experience is traumatizing. The Convention on International Civil Aviation Annex 13 defines an aviation accident as an occurrence associated with the operation of an aircraft where a person is seriously injured; the aircraft sustains damage or structural failure; or the aircraft is missing or completely inaccessible. Aviation accidents can take place between the time any person boards the aircraft with the intention of flight and all such persons have disembarked.

Frequently, these accidents are caused by pilot error or corporate negligence, entitling the victims to just compensation. After a catastrophe, the last thing on your mind is a legal battle. While you are ensuring your own safety or the safety of your loved ones, medical bills can pile up and create overwhelming stress and fatigue. If you or a loved one has been hurt in an airplane accident, a New Jersey aviation accident attorney can fight on your behalf while you deal with the aftermath of this freak occurrence.

At the Todd J. Leonard Law Firm, we have decades of experience suing corporations whose negligence harmed honest American citizens. We understand the pain and confusion you and your loved ones are feeling after an aviation accident. In order not to burden you too much, we take small steps, such as asking a friend or relative to collect preliminary information. Allow us to handle the burdensome legal elements of aviation accidents while you focus on healing and moving on.

Common Causes of Aviation

Airline crashes are rare. Despite this, in 2014 alone there were twenty fatalities due to commuter aircraft accidents. The abnormal nature of these occurrences means that causes will vary, but there are common causes that New Jersey personal injury attorneys see the most often. These include:

  • Pilot Error
  • Mechanical Error
  • Inclement Weather

You could face financial ruin without the assistance of an experienced legal professional. Visiting a New Jersey aviation accident attorney can soften the blow of this tragic episode, and at the Todd J. Leonard Law Firm, we are ready to handle your case with sensitivity and care.
