Bronx Train Accident Lawyer

After sustaining injuries in a train wreck or station mishap, you deserve to be fully compensated. Get the funds you are owed by working with a Bronx train accident lawyer.

It’s a traumatizing experience to suffer injuries in a train accident. With the high cost of medical services and medications, your injuries may be costing you an astronomical amount of money, causing you to worry about your financial future. Train wrecks are usually caused by negligence, and you can seek compensation for your injuries when another party is liable for causing the crash.

Because more than one party may be responsible for the accident, discovering who you can file a personal injury claim against requires a Bronx train accident lawyer from Greenstein & Milbauer, LLP. Our firm has the skills and resources necessary to determine how and why the accident occurred and who is responsible. Protecting your rights is crucial to recovering full compensation for your injuries.

What Caused Your Accident and Injuries?

Thousands of commuters use the light-rail system in the New York City area every day. Train operators and their employers are required to keep their trains safe for passengers. Failing to maintain and operate trains can lead to serious and fatal injuries.

In addition, accidents are not uncommon on train station platforms. Obstructions and slippery floors can cause you harm as you are innocently waiting for your train. Slip, trip, and falls can cause head and neck injuries, broken bones, and spine injuries. Malfunctioning train doors can also harm you.

Common reasons why train accidents happen include all of the following:

  • Driver error
  • Defective train parts
  • Mechanical equipment failure
  • Faulty or improperly maintained tracks
  • Signals or lights that malfunction
  • Malfunctioning safety gates or a lack of gates

Who Can Be Held Accountable for a Train Wreck?

To ensure your case is successful, you can file a claim against the negligent person or parties responsible for causing the train accident. We need to ensure you have a solid case by proving fault.

Your Bronx train accident lawyer will comb through the evidence and examine all the details to seek the full settlement you are entitled to. Those who may be held liable can include any of the following parties or entities:

  • Train conductor
  • Train company, whether public or private
  • Train parts manufacturer
  • Train manufacturer
  • Maintenance company
  • Train station operator
