Air France Flight 358

Useful Tips

1. Keep Detailed Notes

It is important to remember that lawsuits can often take a long time to resolve and therefore it is important to keep a record of your losses and/or expenses arising from this accident. It is also important to keep track of all medical appointments which you attend as a result of any injuries you may have suffered.

We have prepared standard forms to assist passengers and family members to keep track of their losses and expenses and medical appointments. These forms are provided free of charge and their use does not create any legal or financial obligation. We recommend you use these or other similar forms to document your claim:

The use of these forms will not create a solicitor-client relationship or any other legal or financial obligation between yourself and class counsel.

2. Seek Legal Advice.

You should obtain legal advice before submitting any information pertaining to your injuries or any claim for expenses or damaged property to Air France or its insurers.

3. Seek Medical Confirmation.

If you are presently unable to work due to the events of Flight 358, we recommend that you obtain medical confirmation of your inability to work. Use the following link to download a standard Medical Disability Form:

4. Seek Counselling for Emotional Distress.

If you are suffering from emotional distress as a result of the events of Flight 358, we strongly recommend that you seek counselling. The failure to seek medical or psychological assistance may be used against you by the defendants in the litigation. Please contact Paul Miller to obtain a list of counsellors in the Toronto area who have expertise in the treatment of post traumatic stress.
