Airplane accidents are rare, but when they occur, the results are catastrophic. Victims often suffer severe injury, trauma, or death. Whether the incident involves a commercial airline, private charter, or small aircraft, these cases are legally complex and emotionally devastating.

At FGH Law Group, we represent injured passengers, grieving families, and other victims of aviation-related negligence. We are equipped to pursue justice from powerful airline corporations, manufacturers, or government entities involved.

Causes of Aviation Accidents

Aviation disasters often result from a combination of human error and systemic failure. Common causes include:

Pilot Error: Misjudgment during takeoff, mid-air navigation, or landing procedures.
Mechanical Failure: Engine problems, faulty landing gear, or avionics malfunctions.
Air Traffic Control Mistakes: Miscommunication or poor monitoring of flight paths.
Defective Aircraft Parts: Faulty components from manufacturers or suppliers.
Poor Aircraft Maintenance: Failure to inspect, service, or repair key systems.
Weather Conditions: Severe storms or low visibility where pilots and airlines fail to adapt responsibly.
Negligence by Airline Staff or Operators: From improper fueling to ignoring preflight safety checks.
