QUEENS SUBWAY ACCIDENT LAWYER

Subway accidents occur under different circumstances. Common causes include but are not limited to:

• Mechanical failures, such as brake or signal malfunctions
• Human errors like operator negligence or miscommunication  
• Poor maintenance of subway cars and tracks can also lead to accidents,
• Insufficient safety measures.

Even before we proceed with the claim, we’ll first need to identify the cause of the accident. That’s where our team of accident investigators come in to establish what really happened and whether someone dropped the ball on your safety.

Several parties can be held responsible for a subway accident, including but not limited to:

• the subway operator, if negligence or error played a role;
• the transit authority responsible for maintaining the system;
• equipment manufacturers, especially if a defect caused the accident; and
• contractors or maintenance crews, if poor workmanship or neglected repairs contributed to the incident.
