Causes of Airplane Accidents

If you or a loved one have been involved in an airplane accident, there are many questions that arise. How did the crash happen? Could it have been prevented? What can I do about it? At The Law Offices of Haytham Faraj, our team is experienced in investigating aircraft accidents and will do everything it takes to help answer your questions. You will never have to deal with this alone when hiring our firm. There are many potential causes of an airplane accident, including:

Equipment failure or malfunction

Defects in an airplane can arise due to a number of factors, including design flaw, manufacturer flaw, or wear and tear from use. Although inspections are performed regularly, including before and after flights, accidents still can result from faulty or malfunctioning components.

Human error

Human error can happen due to mechanics, ground crew, flight attendants, air traffic controllers, and others, as these individuals play a crucial role in the maintenance and safe operation of an aircraft. Therefore, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) pays close attention to the training, knowledge, and communication to determine if human error may be the cause of an airplane accident.

Mid-air collisions

Mid-air collisions are less common cause of airplane accidents, and this is because the FAA uses the most advanced technology to detect potential collisions, as well as other forms of monitoring the aircraft.

Bad weather

Bad weather conditions, such as high winds, snow storms, thunder and lightning, and more, all pose a threat to some capacity when it comes to flying.

Pilot error

Pilots are always responsible for the safe transportation of passengers. Although it is rare, pilots fail to comply with the proper procedures when operating an aircraft.

How Quickly After an Airplane Accident Should I Hire an Attorney?

Dealing with the aftermath of an airplane accident is extremely difficult. First and foremost, attending to injuries or mourning the loss of a loved one should take priority before seeking financial compensation. However, it is important to know that all personal injury cases, including airplane accidents and mishaps, have a statute of limitations when it comes to filing a claim. This means that victims and/or their families have a limited amount of time to file a claim and if they try to do so too late, then they may not be able to pursue compensation at all. In order to get a better understanding of the specific statute of limitations that applies to your case, it is important to seek help from an airplane crash attorney before the soonest possible deadline. To learn how our highly experienced airplane accident lawyer can help you, contact our team for a free consultation today.


Should I Discuss Settlement Options With an Airline or its Insurance Company?

Airlines and insurance companies have extensive experience in representing their best interests when it comes to dealing with the aftermath of an airplane accident. Because most victims and their families have no experience in dealing with such, they also don’t know anything about their legal rights at the time. Many individuals consider settling their legal claims because they do not want to deal with litigation; however, this often leads to more issues in the end. While settling a claim may sound appealing because it's quick and easy, it can land victims and their families in even more trouble in the long run.

How Long Does an Aviation Accident Case Take?

Aviation accident cases are very complex. It can take months or even years for a case to reach a settlement; however, it’s difficult to give an estimated time without knowing the details of the case. Ultimately, the time frame of your case from start to finish is dependent on the complexities, liability, and many other factors. Every case is different. Therefore, it is best to consult with an aviation accident lawyer so we can learn the details of your case.


What Does it Cost to Hire an Experienced Aviation Accident Attorney?

In all personal injury and wrongful death cases, lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means there are no upfront or hidden fees, and your lawyer only gets paid if they win a settlement on your behalf. Therefore, you will not need to pay any out-of-pocket, hourly, or retainer fees when hiring your lawyer. If and when your lawyer obtains a settlement for you, then they will be given a percentage of your settlement. However, the percentage rate can vary. Ultimately, you have nothing to lose when hiring a personal injury or wrongful death lawyer. To learn more, feel free to contact our team for a free consultation.
