Seek Financial Compensation for Your Trauma
Any injury resulting from an aviation accident has an incredibly high chance of being catastrophic, if not fatal. It is for this reason that it is so important that aviation staff members, such as pilots and maintenance workers, never make a mistake or lose concentration. When they do, lives will be at stake and they must be held accountable for the injuries they cause.
- An aviation accident can be caused by:
- Defective equipment
- Lack of maintenance
- Falsified inspection records
- Dangerous runway conditions
- Inadequate pilot training
