Common Causes of Aviation Accidents

Aviation accidents can stem from a variety of factors, including mistakes by pilots, equipment failures, or environmental conditions. At Palace Law, we analyze every detail of your case to uncover the specific cause of the incident. Common causes include:

  • Pilot Error: Mistakes during takeoff, landing, or navigation are a leading cause of accidents.
  • Mechanical Failures: Poor maintenance, defective equipment, or structural malfunctions can lead to crashes.
  • Adverse Weather: Operating in hazardous conditions increases the risk of accidents, especially if proper precautions aren’t taken.
  • Air Traffic Control Errors: Miscommunication or mistakes by air traffic controllers can result in mid-air collisions or runway incidents.
  • Negligent Operation or Oversight: Failures by airlines, maintenance providers, or manufacturers can directly contribute to accidents.

Our attorneys conduct thorough investigations to identify all liable parties, from pilots and airline operators to maintenance crews and product manufacturers. This comprehensive approach helps ensure accountability and increases the chances of recovering the compensation you deserve.

The Impact of Aviation Accidents

The consequences of aviation accidents are often life-changing, affecting victims and their families physically, emotionally, and financially. Victims may suffer severe injuries such as:

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): Resulting from head trauma or sudden pressure changes during a crash.
  • Spinal Cord Damage: Leading to paralysis or long-term loss of mobility.
  • Burns: Caused by onboard fires, explosions, or fuel leaks.
  • Fractures and Internal Injuries: Common in high-impact crashes and sudden deceleration.
  • Psychological Trauma: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and emotional distress are prevalent among survivors and families.

Fatal aviation accidents also leave families grieving while struggling with lost income and financial uncertainty. Our mission is to secure compensation for immediate medical needs, lost earnings, funeral costs, and ongoing emotional and psychological impacts.

Types of Aviation Accident Cases We Handle

Every aviation accident is unique, and our attorneys have experience handling a broad spectrum of cases, including but not limited to:

1. Commercial Aviation Accidents:

These involve larger aircraft operated by airlines for passengers or cargo. Cases may arise from crashes, mid-air collisions, runway incidents, or structural failures.

2. Small Plane Crashes:

Private and recreational airplanes are often involved in controlled flight into terrain (CFIT), loss of control inflight (LOC-I), or runway incidents. Such accidents may result from pilot error, mechanical issues, or inadequate air traffic oversight.

3. Helicopter Accidents:

Helicopters present unique risks, including wire strikes, tail rotor failure, and difficulties navigating adverse weather conditions. Our attorneys are experienced in addressing the factors specific to these cases.

4. Wrongful Death Claims in Aviation:

Losing a loved one in an aviation accident is heartbreaking. We guide families through the legal process of filing wrongful death claims, ensuring that they receive the compensation they need for financial stability and emotional healing.

When Jodi Crouch reflects on her husband Aaron, she sees a man who devoted 32 years of his life to helping others. But over time, the job took a toll on him.

"Jodi encouraged Aaron to reach out to Palace Law after they heard about the firm through a friend. She knew he needed someone who truly understood what it was like to be a public servant and to carry the weight of those hard days. For Jodi, Palace Law was different."
