Case Details
Settlement for product defect and fatality from a helicopter crash that claimed the lives of five individuals, including Jonathan Udall and Ellie Milward Udall. The settlement was publicized to raise awareness regarding the dangers of aircraft fuel tanks prone to rupturing.
Additional Notes

Smith, an attorney at Bertoldo Carter Smith & Cullen (BCSC), as a member of the legal team involved in the case, played an important and pivotal role as Nevada-based co-counsel in achieving this groundbreaking settlement.
