Herrmann Law sues Boeing again

This week the Herrmann Law Group filed a federal lawsuit against The Boeing Company on behalf of the families of two victims who died in the crash of a Boeing 737 Max 8 operated by Ethiopian Airlines.

Herrmann Law Group also represents more than 30 victim families from the crash of Lion Air Flight JT 610 on Oct. 29, 2018. Both the Lion Air and Ethiopian air crashes involved new Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft. 

The new complaint alleges three main charges: 1) Boeing’s 737 Max 8 was defective, 2) Boeing concealed the dangers of a new computer system on the aircraft from pilots, airlines, and the FAA, and 3) even after the Lion Air crash in 2018, Boeing failed to fully inform pilots of the dangers.

Ethiopian Airlines Flight ET 302 departed Addis Abba, Ethiopia, on March 10, 2019. On board were eight crewmembers and 149 passengers from more than 30 countries. They were bound for Nairobi, Kenya. Many of the passengers were traveling to United Nations or African Union conferences. The plane crashed only minutes after takeoff. All on board died. 

The 157 victims include Canadian Professor Adebola Pius Adesanmi, a world-renowned essayist, satirist, and human rights activist. Herrmann Law Group represents his estate.
