Private Plane Slip And Fall Attorney

While you will likely have more space and freedom to move about the cabin on a private plane, that increases the potential form slip and fall injuries. Sadly, many issues can be overlooked when preparing for the flight and during the trip that could result in one or more passengers suffering what could be severe injuries due to common slip and fall hazards like:

• Drinks that are spilled on the floor but not properly cleaned up
• Ice that is dropped and left to melt into a slippery and hard to see puddle
• Loose or damaged carpet or other floor coverings
• Moisture splashed from the sink in the restrooms
• Leaking hoses or pipes near plumbing fixtures
• Litter or trash that is dropped to the floor but not picked up and properly disposed of

Just because you suffered a fall while on a plane does not mean you can sue the owner. However, if the owner or their staff failed to take the proper action to ensure the safety of passengers on the plane, you could have grounds for a private plane slip and fall injury lawsuit. The staff at DTLA Law Group is here to help you understand how duty of care can allow victims to seek compensation for harm caused by someone else’s negligence.

The plane owner or staff is legally obligated to ensure the safety of passengers by conducting regular inspections and safety checks. If an issue is discovered, it must be corrected or eliminated in a reasonable amount of time. For example, if the lavatory water line is leaking and creating a puddle on the floor that could cause a slip and fall incident, the owner or their staff should correct it immediately or post a notification if the leak cannot be immediately repaired. If they fail to follow this simple requirement, they can be found negligent in their duty of care. In addition, if that negligence is found to have caused or contributed to a passenger’s injuries, the plane owner could be liable for the victim’s losses and harm.

The value of any lawsuit is based on the actual expenses and losses incurred by the victim. There are no predetermined dollar values for certain harm or injuries.

• Your lost income if the injuries you sustained prevent you from preforming the tasks required for your regular job until you are fully recovered and for any income lost due to time spent receiving medical care for the slip and fall injuries
• The replacement cost of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the injury incident
