Common Questions From Victims’ Families
Do I need a U.S.-based lawyer if my loved one died overseas?
Yes. Because Air India operates internationally and compensation may involve U.S. laws or companies, U.S.-based lawyers with aviation experience are crucial.
What does the Montreal Convention mean for me?
It sets the legal framework that allows families to claim compensation without proving negligence in most international crashes.
