Chicago Plane Mechanical Defect Lawyers
Airplanes are one of mankind’s most impressive feats of engineering. These complex machines need to be designed and built very well to function smoothly. If they are not, the best case scenario is that they will not get off the ground at all. In the worst case scenario, innocent people can be badly hurt or killed.
Chicago plane malfunction lawyers Friedman & Bonebrake, P.C., want plane manufacturers to take their duty to their customers very seriously. If you or a loved one has been injured by a party who failed to properly build or maintain their aircraft, contact us at 312-466-8200.
Causes of Mechanical Failures
The responsibility for a plane’s mechanical failure can rest with the company who designed and/or produced it, the business or individual in charge of maintaining it, or a related third party. Potential causes of airplane defects include:
- Aircraft that are poorly designed or built with faulty materials
- Failure of an airline to properly inspect or maintain aircraft
- Faulty or poorly maintained equipment used to build, clean, or maintain aircraft
Determining which party is responsible for a faulty aircraft is not always easy. A qualified Chicago airplane defect attorney will be able to help you choose the best legal route to take.
Compensation for Victims
Airplane manufacturers are under the same strict liability regulations as any other businesses. This means that they can be liable for injuries caused by any flawed product they produce. If you have been hurt in, or lost a loved one to, a plane accident, you may be eligible for compensation.
Compensation can help you cover expenses such as medical bills and lost wages, as well as partially repay you for your suffering.
