Injured?
When the Sky Falls, We’ve Got You Covered
If a Starlink satellite or any other piece of space junk crashes into your car, home, or personal space, you might be wondering who’s responsible.
While it sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie, falling debris from orbit has happened before, and if it happens to you, Morgan & Morgan is here to help.
Because when the sky falls, we don’t panic. We fight for the compensation you need and deserve.
Can I Really Sue if a Starlink Satellite Hits Me?
Yes.*
(*Technically, it’s complicated, but that’s why you call us.)
Private space companies like SpaceX are responsible for ensuring their satellites are safely launched, maintained, and deorbited.
If a satellite comes loose and damages your property or causes injury, negligence could be at play. Whether it’s a design flaw, a failed maneuver, or a simple failure to warn the public, Morgan & Morgan can help determine who’s liable and pursue compensation for:
- Vehicle damage: because your insurance probably doesn’t cover “struck by an object from low Earth orbit.”
- Property damage: roofs, homes, and garages weren’t built for re-entry debris.
- Personal injury: if you were hit, burned, or otherwise injured by space debris.
- Emotional distress: because no one expects Elon Musk to land in their driveway.
What to Do if You’ve Been Struck by a Starlink
If a Starlink satellite (or any piece of space equipment) crashes into your property:
- Get to safety: space debris can be hot, toxic, or radioactive.
- Document everything: take photos and videos from a safe distance.
- Call the authorities: local emergency services and possibly NASA or the FAA.
- Then call us: our attorneys will help you navigate the legal galaxy.
We’ll work to identify the responsible party, calculate your damages, and make sure you’re not left footing the bill for someone else’s cosmic mistake.
