How a Helicopter Crash Attorney Works

Helicopter crashes in America are somewhat rare. Chris and Frank Accident Attorneys represent victims of helicopter accidents. Our attorneys will lead the investigation of the crash and gather evidence like flight logs and maintenance records.

And then our expert team will handle negotiations and litigation to secure compensation for damages such as medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Helicopter Crash Lawsuits

Helicopter crash lawsuits can be filed by victims or their families seeking compensation for damages like medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. These lawsuits can also name various parties as defendants, including pilots, manufacturers, and maintenance crews.

Common Causes of Helicopter Crashes

Common causes for these crashes include pilot error, faulty maintenance, or equipment defects, and investigations are often conducted by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB)

  • Pilot error
  • Faulty maintenance or worn parts
  • Defective equipment
  • Air traffic control issues
  • Flying in poor weather
  • Operating in high-congestion areas
  • Maneuvering unique to helicopter capabilities, such as hovering or external load operations

Potential Defendants in Helicopter Crashes

From pilot error to faulty parts, we fight to hold those responsible for preventable crashes accountable.

Potential Defendants

  • Manufacturers: Can be held liable for defective parts or design flaws.
  • Maintenance crews and companies: Responsible for negligent repairs or failure to properly inspect and maintain the aircraft.
  • Pilots: Can be sued for pilot error, reckless flying, or flying under the influence.
  • Owners and operators: Liable for failing to ensure the helicopter was safe for flight or for negligent hiring of pilots.
  • Government agencies: As seen in the Washington D.C. crash lawsuit, agencies like the FAA can be named if their actions or inactions contributed to the crash.
