Ohio Airplane Accident Lawyers
What to Do Following a Plane Crash
- Have your own engineering and reconstruction team immediately review physical evidence. We can help you with this.
- Have your own reconstruction team quickly review physical evidence. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) does an excellent job in its investigation, but you and your plane crash lawyer are usually not allowed to participate in that investigation.
- Call the NTSB and ask to be informed of any investigation developments.
- Obtain names, addresses and telephone numbers of all witnesses.
- Photograph the accident scene. Professional photographs are preferable.
- Talk to no one about the crash without the consent of your personal lawyer.
- Sign nothing without consulting a lawyer. You may expect airline and insurance company representatives to contact you immediately following the crash.
- Obtain and keep receipts for all expenses relating to the disaster.
