Legal Representation for Victims and Family Members in Los Angeles and Other Cities Across California

Train accident victims and their families deserve full and fair financial compensation. Numerous factors can lead to dangerous train wrecks; and, with only limited exceptions, these factors can all provide grounds to seek compensation for serious and fatal train accidents. Contact us today to learn more about how our experienced California railroad accident attorneys handle:

Personal Injury Cases Involving All Potential Injuries from Train Accidents

We represent railroad workers, passengers, and other injured victims who need to seek compensation for their medical costs and other losses. In a typical case involving serious but non-fatal injuries, the personal injury lawyers on our legal team will work with accident reconstruction experts and trusted medical professionals to seek compensation for our client’s losses including:

  • Costs of immediate medical attention for broken bones and other catastrophic injuries
  • Medical bills for surgeries and other forms of necessary treatment for severe injuries
  • Other medical expenses (i.e., prescriptions, medical supplies, and medical devices)
  • Lost income (i.e., lost wages, lost benefits, and lost future earning capacity)
  • Financial compensation for our client’s pain and suffering and the emotional toll of their accident

From negligent train conductors and railroad officials to malfunctioning rail crossings and train cars, we help our clients seek justice after railroad accidents involving all types of wrongful acts and defects. If you are dealing with serious train accident injuries, we strongly encourage you to schedule a free consultation with one of our experienced train accident attorneys right away.

Wrongful Death Cases Involving Fatal Train Derailments and Collisions

We also represent grieving family members in wrongful death claims against train companies (and their insurance companies). From train manufacturers to common carriers, all types of companies can be held liable for human errors and other failures that lead to fatal train accidents. Our law firm handles fatal accident cases including (but not limited to):  

  • Collisions with oncoming trains
  • Train derailments
  • Pedestrian train collisions
  • Railroad crossing accidents involving cars, school buses, and other motor vehicles
  • Accidents caused by equipment malfunctions, violations of safety regulations, and other factors

These are just examples—we handle all other fatal accident cases involving passenger trains and cargo trains as well. Even if the Federal Railroad Administration is investigating your loved one’s accident, this does not mean that the responsible parties will be held accountable for your family’s losses. To seek justice, you need to hire an experienced California Railroad Accident Lawyers who can assert your family’s rights under California law.
