REPRESENTING VICTIMS IN CATASTROPHIC INJURY AND WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIMS

Railroads have a duty to ensure that you receive proper warning of an on-coming train. When a motor vehicle-train collision results from a failure of the railroad to properly fulfill that duty, you may be entitled to compensation for the injuries or deaths resulting from a crossing accident.

 

Railroad crossing accidents should almost never happen. Unfortunately, negligence and poor maintenance account for many railroad accidents throughout Alabama and the United States. We handle all types of railroad crossing accidents, including motor vehicle-train accidents resulting from the following:

 

• Failure to warn of an on-coming train

• Failure to signal an on-coming train

• Failure to install proper railroad crossing equipment

• Failure to inspect and maintain railroad crossing equipment

• Failure to provide motor vehicle operators with a clear line of vision.

 

In meritorious cases, victims of railroad crossing accidents may be entitled to monetary damages for past and future medical expenses, lost earnings, disfigurement and pain and suffering. Some cases may also merit an award of punitive damages.

 

If you or a loved one have been seriously injured or killed in a railroad crossing accident, please contact us for a confidential, no-cost, no-obligation evaluation of your potential claim.
