Determining Liability For Railroad Accidents
There are many different parties that can be found liable for a train or railroad accident. Oftentimes, an accident is caused by unsafe conditions, negligent maintenance near a crossing, broken equipment, negligent train and railroad companies, or negligent and reckless drivers. A railroad company can be found liable for the accident if improper maintenance, unsafe working conditions, faulty equipment, negligent hiring practices, incomplete training, or some other negligent or reckless practice contributed to the accident. A driver may be found liable if a driver causes a collision due to reckless driving, intoxicated driving, speeding, distracted driving, or trying to beat the train and becoming stuck on the tracks. Additionally, government agencies may be found liable for an accident if malfunctioning railroad crossing warning signs and lights contributed to the accident.
Our Alabama train attorney & railroad attorneys will conduct a thorough investigation into your accident in order to determine the liable party or parties and the full extent of their responsibility for the accident and your injuries and losses. While proving liability in railroad accidents can be a complicated process due to the presence of multiple parties and specific railroad regulations and laws, the assistance of our experienced and knowledgeable lawyer is invaluable as you pursue the full extent of the compensation that you deserve.
