Train Accident Atorney in Philadelphia

Train accidents can be caused by several different factors, which can include:

• Derailment
• Collision
• Defective equipment
• Mechanical problems
• Driver under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs
• Excessive speeding or other reckless behavior
• Driver/train operator fatigue
• Driver/train operator inexperience

Railroad crossings also present a danger for train operators and vehicles. Trains can become stuck at the crossings, or drivers may ignore the crossing guard and flashing lights. Determining the cause of the Tallahassee train accident is a vital part of your personal injury case. Morgan & Morgan can assess the accident scene and help determine fault.

Whether your vehicle is hit by a train at a railroad crossing or you’re a train employee, your injuries can be significant and even life-altering. Some of the common injuries we see in Tallahassee train accident lawsuits involve:

• Hearing loss
• Back and neck injuries
• Asbestos exposure

Railroad employees can also sustain injuries on the job. Repetitive motions and heavy lifting can result in muscle sprains and tears.
