Southwest Airlines Flight 1455
Berglund & Johnson represented the most seriously injured victims in the crash of Southwest Airlines Flight 1455. We discovered in the course of litigation that Southwest had disconnected the automatic braking system from all of their 737s because the President of Southwest wanted to save money for the airlines.During extensive discovery of Southwest documents, maintenance logs and extensive depositions of witnesses, it was determined that the plane was approaching Burbank Airport too high, too fast and further down the runway than safe. In addition, Tests were done by our experts that proved that even though the plane was coming in too high, too fast, and landed long it could have stopped in time if the auto braking was operative.
