We cross their tracks without noticing them, and take for granted that the whistles will sound, bells will ring and gates will come down to prevent a collision between our trains and cars. Unfortunately, railroad crossing accidents occur for a variety of reasons, almost always leaving death or catastrophic injury as a result. Likewise, derailments of our trains are occurring with alarming frequency. Lawyers with experience in dealing with railroad accidents can be critical in achieving a successful outcome. These cases are usually highly contested, and require attorneys with an understanding of the issues. Our lawyers have experience in handling railroad accidents including those involving cross-buck crossings, malfunctioning bells, malfunctioning gate arms, and trains operating outside of regulated speeds.
