Train Accidents

When you think about traveling by train, as opposed to any other mode of transportation, do you normally think that it is a safer option than the car or the airplane? If you are like most people, the answer is probably “Yes.” Many people are afraid of airplanes, and we all know that the highways can be very dangerous, but when a train wreck happens, we are genuinely shocked. How could this have happened?

Our preconceptions aside, train crashes are far more common than we would like to think. Accidents happen when cars and trucks stall or are left purposely on railroad tracks, locomotive operators get distracted, or when equipment problems occur. Other crashes may be caused by confusing signals at road crossings over rail lines.

The numbers tell the story. In 2007, there were 13,236 train accidents nationwide, including crashes, derailments and motor vehicle/train collisions.

When a train crash happens, the emotional and financial toll on victims and their families cannot be overestimated. Fortunately, the law offers some recourse for those who were injured, so that the parties at fault for the wreck bear the costs of their actions rather than the innocent passengers and employees.

If you or a loved one suffered property damage or injuries following a train wreck or other train-related incident, you may have a valid claim for your losses. The right train accident lawyer can determine if you have a good case, and can increase your chances of receiving the highest possible recovery from those responsible for the losses. The time to get started is now.

If you have suffered injuries or property loss after being involved in a train accident, you may be entitled to compensatory damages for:

  • Lost wages
  • Medical bills
  • Loss of consortium
  • Emotional distress
  • Property Loss
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of earning capacity
