GKWW Moves Fast

There is urgency in crash site investigation and representation.  GKWW heads to the scene of the accident as soon as contacted by a client.  GKWW meets with the family of the deceased at their homes and obtains information so that it can present the true picture of the life of the decedent.  We make ourselves available at all hours to ensure success on these cases. As with other cases, Tom Gardiner makes his cell phone (312-371-6279) available to all.  GKWW recognizes that the loss of a loved one can be devastating and hopes to make the legal process accessible and understandable to the family.

Fighting for the Best Forum

In litigation involving airplane crashes, the location of the lawsuit can have extremely important implications.  GKWW is familiar with the law involving removal of actions and forum non conveniens.

Small Aircraft

While some firms limit themselves to wrongful death cases involving only commercial aircraft for the international airlines of the world, GKWW will represent families who have suffered as a result of the death of a loved one in a small aircraft.

The Family Connection

Tom Gardiner’s interest in aviation has been lifelong both his father and son are pilots.
