Helicopter crash litigation runs alongside grief, disruption, and questions that rarely come with easy answers. These cases are expensive, time-consuming, and emotionally draining — which means clear information isn’t a convenience. It’s a necessity.
That’s why we wrote one. Helicopter Crash Litigation (now in its Third Edition) is drawn from the work behind our own cases, built for two audiences: families navigating this process and attorneys who need to get it right.
Written From Our Case Experience, Not From the Sidelines
Aviation cases involve technical questions, detailed records, and a process that can feel unfamiliar even to experienced attorneys. We wrote Helicopter Crash Litigation from the lessons and complications that emerged in our own cases, with the goal to “demystify this area” for readers confronting it. The book is now in its Third Edition — a reflection of how much there is to get right, and how much the field continues to develop.
We can’t take every helicopter crash case. But making our knowledge available to other attorneys is one way to extend that impact. The book addresses the pitfalls that shape the direction of cases before most lawyers realize they’ve encountered one. Its purpose is practical: to help other lawyers “avoid some of the most common mistakes in handling this complex area.”
For clients, a written guide does something a single conversation can’t. It gives families a place to revisit the framework of helicopter crash litigation at their own pace, as the process unfolds over months or years.
Why We Publish What We’ve Learned
Our work in aviation law has never been limited to winning individual cases. We push for accountability from aviation companies and for changes to the practices that cause crashes in the first place. Publishing a reference is part of that mission — it means what we’ve learned through years of litigation can reach more than one family or one courtroom.
For clients, that approach can mean:
- A practical reference for understanding the questions and stages that arise in helicopter crash litigation.
- Context for the technical and procedural demands that make these cases difficult to navigate alone.
- A legal team that treats clear communication as part of serving families through a hard process.
