Review:
Dispute
Resolution provides a detailed analysis of the legal and
economic issues faced by plaintiffs and defendants in major aviation
accidents. The report addresses claims, settlements, lawsuits
and compensation differences and the reasons why cases settle early
or not. Variable characteristics of decedents, plaintiffs,
defendants, accidents and legal environments are used to determine
the probabilities of filing suit, going to trial and the duration of
each case. The authors discuss how air crash litigation
differs from other tort situations, correlate case outcomes with
economic losses while explaining the theory behind empirical models
and their operations.

Resolution is one of six volumes studying aviation accident
litigation available at RAND. Other related reports include:
