Experienced Representation for Aviation-Related Crashes and Injuries
Seeking representation for injuries or death of a loved one as a result of an airplane crash requires an experienced legal team, like Curcio Law, that understands the nuances of aviation cases. Our attorneys have successfully taken on large public transportation cases including rail, bus, and rideshare services in the D.C. and Northern Virginia metro area. Most notably, Tom Curcio has firsthand experience representing 5 families who lost a loved one as a result of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Families were given the choice between pursuing a claim through the compensation fund or filing a liability claim against the airlines. Tom meticulously guided the families he represented through this decision-making process, providing them with the necessary information to make an informed choice. His work in these cases underscores our firm’s commitment to handling highly public aviation claims with the utmost professionalism and compassion. Our Alexandria airplane accident lawyers are well-equipped to tackle aviation litigation against large commercial airlines, private aircraft, military helicopters or governmental aircraft, and even acts of terrorism.
In addition, our office is located in Old Town Alexandria, just minutes from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), and federal agencies like National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). We are uniquely positioned to serve clients affected by aviation disasters in the Virginia, Washington D.C. metropolitan area, and along the Potomac River. With access to everything we need in our backyard, we invest our time to onsite, face to face, feet on the ground efforts that produce results for our clients. We are also located right by the Eastern District of Virginia’s Courthouse, where these matters are routinely tried.
What to Do if You or a Loved One Was Injured or Died in an Airplane Crash
When an aviation crash or in-flight injury occurs, victims and their families are often up against major airlines, powerful insurance companies, and governmental agencies. It is important to get an experienced attorney in your corner quickly. Often at-fault airlines or agencies try to take advantage of your grieving period by offering quick settlements before victims or their families can consider all of their options.
Why Curcio Law?
-
Aviation Law Is Complex. You Need a Legal Advocate Who Understands It
Aviation cases are not typical. Curcio Law has experience representing unusual and precedent setting cases in transportation.
- Federal regulations from the FAA and NTSB
- Potential liability from multiple parties (airlines, manufacturers, government agencies, military aircraft, and air traffic controllers)
- Strict timelines and legal requirements
-
Airlines, Governmental Agencies, and Insurance Companies Will Try to Minimize or Deny Your Claim
Airlines, Governmental Agencies, private insurers, and the United States Military have a tremendous number of resources at their disposal.
They may:
- Claim your injuries were “unavoidable” due to turbulence
- Blame pilot error instead of company-wide safety failures
- Offer a lowball settlement that does not cover your medical bills, lost wages, or long-term suffering
- Minimize the loss of a loved one
When it comes to settling, we never pressure our clients to accept a deal they are less than happy about. If your case requires it, we have the ability and willingness to go to court and fight for full compensation.
-
Catastrophic Injuries & Wrongful Death Require Maximum Compensation
Plane crashes often result in severe injuries or death. Without proper legal representation, you may miss out on additional considerations like:
- Future medical expenses
- Lost income & diminished earning capacity
- Pain & suffering
- Emotional distress & loss of companionship when a loved one is killed
-
High-Profile Cases Require a Firm That Handles Sensitive Legal Matters
Highly publicized airplane cases, especially those involving terrorism, security failures, governmental actors, the military, or commercial airline disasters, receive nonstop media attention. Airlines and government agencies may delay or withhold critical information to protect themselves from the public scrutiny, leaving victims’ families struggling to get clear answers. Attorneys with experience handling large, highly publicized cases are few and far between. Tom Curcio’s work with the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund, combined with our firm’s success in public transportation cases in one of the nation’s busiest traffic regions, is a proven track record of our experience.
