West Palm Beach Fatal Airplane Crash Attorneys
Aviation Accidents are devastating. They can cause death and tremendous damage – both for the passengers on board and people on the ground. They can destroy property, too. The physical, emotional, and financial harm can seem, and often is, unimaginable. Aviation cases are particularly complex. Not only do they require an in-depth knowledge of personal injury laws, but an understanding of aircraft – and the ability to navigate and interact with the government agencies that oversee aviation safety. There are numerous federal and state statutes and regulations to master, too. These are extraordinary cases that demand extraordinary lawyers. Babbitt, Johnson, Osborne & Le Clainche, P.A., is uniquely positioned to handle such catastrophic injury matters. One of our partners,Theodore Babbitt, hasn't just logged 40 years of trial experience, but more than 4,000 hours of flight time as a licensed commercial pilot and flight instructor. He has flown his own aircraft throughout the United States and the Caribbean, and is intimately familiar with general aviation aircraft. And like all of our attorneys, he has mastered, in numerous cases over a long career, the nuances, strategies, and pitfalls of this challenging and complicated area of law. Since opening our doors four decades ago, we've handled numerous catastrophic injury cases – and recovered significant verdicts and settlements for our injured clients and the families of the deceased.
