Plaintiff's Counsel: Jamie R. Lebovitz
Confidential Verdict in Aviation-Related Wrongful Death Case
Jamie R. Lebovitz represented a family of five from Pittsburgh, PA who were on an African safari during the Christmas holiday. They were scheduled to take a charter air flight from the Serengeti of Tanzania to Rawanda. During the take-off phase of the flight, the aircraft crashed and fire erupted. The family escaped from the burning wreckage; one of the family members returned to the wreckage to save the life of the pilot.
The passengers all survived with varying degrees of bodily injuries and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Initial medical attention was provided in Tanzania and, upon return to the United States, by local physicians and psychologists.
