Aggressive representation and personal service

Contact the Law Offices of Ronald E. Sholes for advice and representation on aircraft and airplane accident cases involving personal injury or wrongful death. Whether it’s passengers, crew members or other aircraft workers, every airline accident case is different and time is of the essence. We encourage victims and their families to seek immediate legal representation.

Airline laws involving injuries aboard passenger aircraft, cargo planes or other aircraft, and flight related vehicles, are not the same as other typical personal injury cases and differ in many ways. There are different rules which apply, including time limits, which may affect your rights. Another obvious concern is preservation of critical evidence and putting responsible parties on notice so that critical evidence is properly preserved. The intricacies of state and federal laws make it even more important that you obtain quality legal representation immediately.

And, unlike many law firms, we don't just settle! We don't simply take what the insurance company wants to pay, but rather we demand and fight for fair and just compensation for your injuries and all of your damages, including your economic and non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering and your loss of enjoyment of life.

Many aircraft accidents occur due to negligence. whether it’s a mechanical error that puts the aircraft worker at risk or the owner/employer’s lack of observance and failure to repair the problem before a crewmember or worker gets hurt. Mechanical errors are one of the most common reasons for airplane injuries and death. Fatigued airport workers are another major cause of accidents and injuries. Owners and employers must be held accountable, but often times are simply not. Contract law can play a major role in aircraft injury or wrongful death claims. Remember, responsible parties, like large airlines, and their insurance companies, do NOT want to pay damages. Oftentimes these companies attempt to get crew members to "waive" their right to bring a claim under certain circumstances. These companies will attempt to avoid responsibility by compelling arbitration and avoiding a trial by jury.
