NEW - The Cartwright Law Firm is currently representing 29 families of the victims of the Helios Air Disaster, which involved a Cypriot Airline that crashed in Greece in 2005, killing nearly 200 people. Boeing is the primary defendant in the case and the plaintiffs allege that a design defect in the warning system was the primary cause of the crash. Robert Cartwright, Jr. and Matthew Quinlan recently traveled to Cyprus to meet with our clients and foreign co-counsel.
NEW - The Cartwright Law Firm is currenlty representing hundreds of individuals who were stranded on the tarmac in Austin, TX, on December 29, 2006, while aboard an American Airlines flight in a Class Action Lawsuit. The passengers ran out of food, drinking water, and were without access to medications for nearly 10 hours. More shockingly, the passengers were forced to endure over-flowing toilets, all while sitting within eyesight of available gates. The flight departed from San Francisco, CA, en route to Mobile, AL, but was diverted to Austin due to poor weather conditions.
