Aviation Law Lawyers

Seeking help before you try and claim aviation related compensation is imperative. Without the proper guidance, you may not be eligible to apply for any compensation. Soon after any aviation disaster or accident, there is an enquiry to find out who was at fault. Once this has concluded, our team of experts will be able to advise you whether your compensation claim has merit.

We encourage all clients to seek advice and lodge a compensation claim as soon as possible. Evidence in aviation disasters can often be lost forever. This means you will not be able to seek compensation of any kind. Time limits for claims can also apply for international zones, depending on which country the accident occurred in.

At the time of your initial consultation, your LHD lawyer will advise of any applicable time limits

As with any compensation claim, your entitlements depend on your situation and the injuries sustained. Entitlements can vary based on your age, loss of income or out of pocket expenses you have had to pay, such as hospital care or rehabilitation.

Rules differ for claims made on international air disasters or accidents. Your LHD lawyer will be able to inform you of any international laws that apply to your case. Your LHD lawyer will be able to give you a rough estimate of what you can expect once they have reviewed all aspects of your case.

This varies from case to case and will be entirely dependent on the facts of your case and the situation. It can take on average between 1 – 3 years to receive any entitlement; however, it is important to note that this can differ depending on the complexity of your case.

Injuries sustained during the accident may be taken into consideration before a decision is made. It is important to note various international laws may apply to your case. Your LHD lawyer will be able to give you a rough idea of what to expect as your case progresses.
