St. Petersburg Airplane Accident Lawyers

It is a well-known fact that flying is statistically safer than traveling the same distance in a car. However, although they are rare, the effects of a plane crash are often more devastating than almost any other kind of vehicle accident. One error committed by a pilot or airline can lead to dozens of tragic deaths.

If you have been injured or lost a loved one in such an accident, you may want to get in touch with St. Petersburg plane crash lawyers Beltz & Ruth, P.A. We have the necessary understanding of the complex federal and international laws governing damages for plane crashes. Call us at 1-800-931-4369 to learn about the compensation you may be eligible for.

Causes of Plane Accidents

The majority of plane crashes are caused by avoidable human error. Our St. Petersburg plane accident lawyers can represent you in claims concerning:

• Pilot Error
• Pilot Intoxication
• Airline Negligence
• Airplane Defects/Malfunction
• Air Traffic Controller Error

There is no acceptable excuse for these kinds of mistakes, particularly when they lead to the deaths or severe injuries of innocent passengers.

Plane Accident Outcomes

Plane crashes have a tragically high fatality rate: nearly 75%. For those who are fortunate enough to survive, their lives are often changed dramatically. Some of the injuries that plane crash survivors may suffer from include:

• Scarring or disfigurement
• Spinal cord injuries, including paralysis
• Amputation
• Fractures and severe lacerations
• Psychological trauma

Legal damages cannot truly compensate for these painful conditions. However, they can at least cover medical bills and lost wages. Without these damages, plane crash victims and their families can face severe financial losses in addition to their other problems.
