Burns Charest attorney Hannah Crowe was featured in a WFAA-TV broadcast about a wrongful death lawsuit filed on behalf of the mother of a teenager who died following a medical emergency on American Airlines flight. The story also appeared online in the article, “Family sues American Airlines over 14-year-old’s death after medical emergency on flight.” 

The lawsuit alleges the plane’s on-board defibrillator did not function properly and the flight crew was not properly trained in its use, contributing to his death.   

“The loss of a child is truly unimaginable, and the facts of this case are horrendous,” Ms. Crowe told WFAA. “Multiple eyewitnesses confirm that American Airlines flight personnel were slow to respond and not able to operate the AED machine, which appeared not to work.”
