The medical helicopter that crashed near Chicago last October spurred an investigation into the safety of medical helicopters. Unfortunately, this was not the first accident of its kind and may not be the last.

Because of this, the National Transportation Safety Board is holding a four day long hearing on the subject of medical helicopter safety. This may help in the process of making these helicopters safer.

When an accident occurs that necessitates medical transport, that transportation should not be dangerous. If you or someone you know has been injured during medical transportation, contact the Chicago personal injury attorneys of Friedman & Bonebrake, PC at 312-466-8200.
