    A lawyer representing some passengers on the Singapore Airlines flight that hit severe turbulence says everyone should seek legal advice

    A lawyer representing some passengers on the Singapore Airlines flight that hit severe turbulence says everyone should seek legal advice

    One died and dozens were injured on the plane, which plunged about 18-hundred metres last month.

    Passengers who sustained minor injuries have been offered a little over 16-thousand dollars and more than 40-thousand for serious injuries.

    CNN's Anna Stewart says there're questions around what the final payout will be.

    She says a lot depends on the ongoing investigation and whether the airline was at fault; and if it was completely unavoidable.
