When a mass accident occurs — an air disaster, train accident, building collapse, industrial explosion, cable car accident, or road accident involving numerous victims — the human consequences are tragic.
Families are plunged into emotional turmoil, while also having to navigate a complex legal process to obtain truth, justice and compensation.
Le Tutour Avocats has been supporting victims and their loved ones in these particularly painful situations for many years. We put our expertise at the service of a demanding and humane defence.
Recognised experience in the legal management of mass disasters
Mass accidents raise specific legal issues:
- Multiple victims and liabilities (transport operators, operators, insurers, local authorities, the State).
- Long and complex criminal and civil proceedings.
- Specific compensation from compensation funds or insurers.
Our role is to protect the interests of each individual in a collective setting, ensuring that we do not reduce the individual to each individual situation while providing a common defence. We intervene from the earliest stages of the proceedings to advise, support and defend.
Defending and representing
Our firm acts:
- Before the criminal courts
- Before the civil courts
- In the context of amicable compensation settlements
We also act as a spokesperson to the media, if our clients so wish.
