Every year, millions of people fly in airplanes, helicopters and hot air balloons in the United States. While the odds of an accident are very small compared to motor vehicle travel, several thousand air passengers and crew are injured every year, and dozens are killed, according to the National Transportation Safety Board. The aviation injury lawyers at Dormer Harpring, LLC have considerable experience vigorously pursuing justice for victims of aviation accidents and their families. From our office in Denver, we serve clients throughout Colorado.

If you have been injured in such an accident, it is essential that you find an experienced aviation accident attorney to preserve evidence and protect your rights. Failure to act promptly may limit your legal options.

We understand aviation laws and the requirements for proving liability. And we have reputable engineering, accident reconstruction, aviation and medical experts to assist with these complex cases.
