Train Accident Attorney in Queens

Train accident cases are particularly challenging, partly because they often involve multiple parties, such as the train company, big insurance companies, manufacturers and maintenance providers, and even government entities. 

Additionally, the regulations and laws governing train operations in New York are complex and require specialized knowledge and experience. On top of that, compared to standard car accidents, the severity of injuries in train accidents makes it even more challenging to fight for compensation since insurance companies often put up strong defenses to avoid liability or minimize payouts. 

That's why you need an attorney with your best interests at heart and with the resources to take on any party on your behalf.

Insurance companies may try to offer quick, lowball settlements before the full extent of your injuries is known. They may also try to shift blame or argue that your injuries are not as severe as claimed. Keep in mind that New York is a pure comparative negligence state, and insurance companies may want to take advantage of this law to shift the blame on you. 

These strategies are designed to protect their bottom line, not your well-being. If you fall for these tactics, you risk ending up with insufficient funds to cover your medical expenses and other losses. An experienced attorney from a powerful injury firm like Morgan and Morgan can fight these tactics and ensure you receive maximum compensation.

If you have been injured in a train accident, you may be entitled to various types of compensation. Among others, these damages may include:

• medical expenses;
• rehabilitation costs;
• lost wages and future earning capacity;
• pain and suffering;
• emotional distress;
• permanent disfigurement; and 
• loss of enjoyment of life.
