Your case isn’t just another file—it’s our priority.
We understand the challenges you’re facing after an injury. That’s why we combine our legal expertise with genuine compassion to guide you through every step of the process.
The railroad in order to deflect negligence immediately after an accident involving an injury has its claim agents and attorneys begin protecting its interests – not the injured railroader’s.
The claim agent takes witness statements, investigates the railroad accident scene / equipment, and reviews the facts. The railroad claim agent might also attempt to stop the injured worker from exercising his right to choose treating physician(s) and push the injured railroader to treat with a company doctor who is loyal to the railroad.
This is why if you are injured at work on the railroad you hire a personal injury lawyer experienced with FELA claims and railroad injury litigation.
Our railroad injury attorneys understand the complex litigation of railroad injury claims and have obtained record verdicts and settlements against the railroads.
