Plane crashes, helicopter accidents, and other aviation incidents frequently result in fatalities to pilots and passengers. If you or a loved one were injured in an aviation accident in Texas, you may have the right to pursue compensation from the parties responsible for the wreck.
While commercial air travel is normally relatively safe, there have been a growing number of incidents in recent years where crashes and serious accidents have occurred. If you or someone you love is involved in an accident on a commercial airline, you need a Texas aviation accident attorney with the knowledge and experience to handle these complex cases. Slack Davis can help.
Helicopter crashes can be serious and often deadly. When a crash occurs, and it can be attributed to the negligence or wrongdoing of others, victims and their surviving family members can take legal action. Slack Davis has three decades of experience fighting for clients injured in helicopter accidents and other aviation accidents. We understand the law, we know how to investigate these difficult claims, and we are here and ready to fight for you.
Texas medical air ambulances are specially equipped aircraft, including helicopters and fixed-wing airlines that transport people who have suffered serious illnesses or who have been badly hurt and are in need of medical care. Unfortunately, sometimes accidents happen with air ambulances, and they cause victims to suffer harm. When this occurs, a Texas medical air ambulance lawyer at Slack Davis can provide invaluable help and support.
When a helicopter sightseeing accident happens, the victims of the crash have legal rights. If you or someone you love was hurt, Slack Davis can help you to identify the crash cause and put together a solid legal claim to fight for justice. Give us a call or contact us online today to schedule your free consultation and learn more.
While private planes are a common travel option in Texas and most trips happen without a hitch, this is not always the case. Unfortunately, sometimes accidents happen with these aircraft. When a plane crash of any type occurs, victims need to understand their legal options.

One of our daughters was seriously injured in a car accident. Mike Guajardo handled her personal injury case and did a tremendous job. Mike navigated us through the legal landscape which allowed my wife and I to focus on our daughters medical challenges and recovery. He was always available when we had questions and explained everything thoroughly. Mike negotiated with several auto and health insurance companies on our behalf and got great results for our daughter. Mike was professional, easy to work with and negotiated hard for our daughter. I would highly recommend Mike and his firm.

From the very beginning, they were incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely concerned about my well-being. They took the time to thoroughly explain the entire process, answering all my questions and ensuring I was comfortable every step of the way.

Ladd is brilliant in court, without showboating; he and Nikki worked with local attorneys perfectly and the case went smoothly. We won our case! He is available and attentive--answers all texts, emails, and calls promptly. Never lost patience with us and this case had a lot of moving parts. I feel 100% pleased that he took my case. He is humble and kind yet also a force when impassioned in court. Does he have a degree in psychology as well as law?

I was in a bad accident and a friend recommended Slack Davis Sanger and I'm really glad I listened. The whole staff was extremely helpful throughout my legal process. They genuinely seemed to care that I got better not just about the legal side of things. I can't say enough good things about the group but in particular Mandy Krutsinger she checked in on me at least twice a week and kept me updated on everything going on she couldn't have been more helpful. The Lawyer I worked with was outstanding too. Thank you Slack for making a difficult process easy.

It's hard to put into words how amazing this group is, but I'll try! From the first time meeting them to the present day, they have been nothing but friendly, helpful and professional and made me feel comfortable by constantly keeping me in the loop on everything, and letting me know there is no such thing as a "dumb question." Greg, Mike, Stephanie and the entire firm are not only extremely knowledgeable and talented professionally, but they are equally wonderful people in general. They truly do put their client's first, and their track record proves it. Absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of legal counsel!

My experience with Mike Slack was exceptional. Surviving a plane crash is extremely traumatic both physically and emotionally, and adding the task of navigating through legal issues was overwhelming. I interviewed several attorneys and knew after our first visit that he was different - he cared about me and about my family. He and his staff were patient and very kind as they spent time getting to know us all. I felt like he truly wanted to help and that is what he did. Wendy Bonham Corporate Air flight 5966

I was in pain and needed medical attention after a car accident. I couldn’t get anyone at the police station to return my call so I could get the police report with the at fault party’s insurance on it. I didn’t get it that day because I left in an ambulance. Within one day of Slack Davis Sanger LLP taking on my case, I had a copy of the police report and was able to find a doctor to help me with my broken foot. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need! They have a great, caring team. I have never felt like a number!

Slack Davis Sanger is a truly exceptional law firm. Their attorneys and staff are intelligent, prepared, and willing to fight for the absolute best for their clients. SDS’s in-house medical review team is second-to-none and a tremendous asset. Mandy is smart, diligent, efficient and an absolute delight to work with. I can’t recommend SDS highly enough.

Mike Slack and his team were professional, caring and attentive when helping myself and my daughters with our case. I couldn’t have done this without their professional legal help. I am forever grateful for Mike and his team for helping my daughter in an unfortunate event that we had to endure and encounter. Mike Slack and his team are the professionals you want to have on your team. I went into his office very stressed and overwhelmed when we first met but left with ease because Mike ensured me that him and team would take care of us and made sure that every decision made was in the best interest of my girls and that is exactly what he did! He stayed true to his word to me and my girls. I can’t thank Mike and his team enough!

Slack Davis Sanger is a quality firm that makes every case their number one priority. They are sensitive to their clients needs and concerns. The entire staff is highly trained and committed to the client. The medical specialist in particular was very easy to work with, with open lines of communication and compassion she took care of everything. She was on the ball and went over everything in a clear manner. I was at ease right from the get go with the professionalism in which my case was handled.

Slack Davis Slanger is a great firm here in Austin, I would absolutely recommend them to a friend or family member in need.
In particular I want to recognize a true MVP: Mandy Krutsinger.
Mandy is incredibly smart, patient, and thorough. Mandy goes above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcomes for both her clients and the firm. Her clients trust her to explain complicated legal and medical concepts so that they understand; and she always treats them with great respect, empathy, and care.

Slack Davis Sanger LLP are true professionals and really good at what they do. When our daughter was injured in a rear end collision that was no fault of her own, we turned to Slack Davis and Sanger to manage and deal with the insurance and hospital. It was a great decision and we were well represented, taken care of and expertly guided throughout the ordeal. Thank you Slack Davis Sanger, LLP!
