Reno Air Show Accident Attorneys

An airplane crash that took place at the National Championship Air Race in Reno, NV, tragically claimed the lives of three people and injured at least 56 others. The September 16, 2011 accident occurred when a WWII-era plane, piloted by Jimmy Leeward, plunged into the air show's spectator filled grandstands. Victims of this devastating crash should seek the counsel of an aviation accident lawyer at the law firm of Estey Bomberger. We have more than 70 years experience helping victims suffering from a serious injury or loss recover compensation for accident-related damages.

Full and Fair Compensation

A serious brain injury, spinal cord injury, bone fracture injury, amputation (limb loss) injury or internal organ injury can result in permanent disabilities requiring long-term care. The airplane accident lawyers at Estey Bomberger will work tirelessly to ensure victims' current and future medical care is not interrupted.
