Every aviation accident occurring in the state after this date is probably bound by the two-year timeframe. But your case might not be governed by Florida law since some airplane accidents involve federal law which has different timelines.
Moreover, the identity of the responsible party can also complicate situations: in a case where a government entity is liable, you’ll first have to file a claim with the federal or state agency before you can file a lawsuit.
It is why to succeed in an airplane accident lawsuit, the assistance of an aviation attorney is indispensable, ensuring that all legal aspects are handled through:
- Specific apprehension. Aviation attorneys are well-versed in the laws and regulations regarding the aviation industry. This knowledge allows them to navigate complex aviation accident cases.
- Investigation and evidence gathering. An aviation attorney can lead or assist in investigations to discover what caused the accident, collaborating with experts to gather evidence.
- Liability assessment. Aviation accident lawyers can identify the responsible parties and assess liability.
- Legal advocacy. Aviation lawyers represent claimants and help protect their rights.
- Insurance negotiations. Aviation attorneys represent victims in negotiations with insurance companies to obtain payment for medical treatment, property damages, and other losses.
- Litigation support. Aviation attorneys represent clients and their interests in legal proceedings.
- Timely action. Aviation lawyers know the importance of immediate action after an accident to ensure compliance with legal deadlines.
- Emotional support. Beyond legal expertise, aviation lawyers try to provide emotional support to clients dealing with the consequences of a traumatic event.
