Accidents on board an aircraft

If you have been injured in an accident on board an aircraft in the last 2 years contact BGR Bloomer to see if you are entitled to compensation from the airline company that operated the flight.

Under Article 17 of the Warsaw Convention the airline company will be liable to compensate you for your injuries without you having to prove that the accident was caused by the negligence of the airline company. 

There has been much debate as to what constitutes an " accident ". The leading case on this is Air France v Saks where it was held to be "an unusual and unexpected event or happening external to the passenger". If you are unsure whether the incident constitutes an "accident" seek legal advice.

BGR Bloomer have built a reputation for providing clients with a quality service and hence we ensure that your claim is handled by a fully qualified solicitor throughout. Most firms of solicitors consider this type of accident as work that should be done by unqualified staff. However, we do not share that view and believe that your case is as important as any other type of claim. If you were travelling whilst on duty with work, you may want to make an accident at work claim - we will be able to advise you on this. Whatever sort of accident you have suffered, it is always advisable to speak to expert injury claim solicitors
