"I'm happy for our client," said Mark Lindquist, the attorney for Amie Belanger, the wife of Darcy Belanger who died aboard Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302. "She stood her ground. We are satisfied with the resolution, accountability, and closure."
According to Lindquist, the terms of the settlements are confidential.
