Airplane & Aviation Accidents

Air crash and other airplane, helicopter or aviation accident litigation

RisCassi and Davis, P.C. has represented victims of airplane or helicopter crashes and their families. We have pursued cases on behalf of both passengers and pilots.

Sometimes, a claim is brought against the pilot or airline responsible for the operation of the plane. Other times, on behalf of our clients, we may sue the manufacturer of an airplane, an aircraft engine, or a component part, for a product defect under the Connecticut Product Liability Act.

Sometimes, aviation accidents involve parties from many different jurisdictions. Where necessary, we have worked with attorneys in other states to determine the most appropriate jurisdiction and venue in which to pursue an aviation crash case. We have also served as local Connecticut counsel for air crash accidents that have occurred elsewhere in the world, but have involved Connecticut manufacturers, or Connecticut victims.

We have retained expert pilots, experts in aviation, and experts in aviation fires to help us reconstructed air crashes, and determine why a plane or helicopter crashed.

We have also handled a variety of other injuries occurring at airports, involving both patrons and aviation contractors.
