Train Accident Attorneys in New York
According to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), New York City is home to the largest subway system in the world. The subway carries more than a billion passengers each year, and it is far and away the most common means of commuting in New York City and the surrounding areas. The MTA has a duty of care to each and every passenger in the subway system. Unfortunately, the MTA does not always live up to this commitment. As a result, subway passengers can be seriously injured or even killed due to negligence while riding on the subways.
If you were injured in a subway accident, the law firm of Rosenberg, Minc, Falkoff & Wolff LLP understands how to help you achieve a complete financial recovery. For decades, our lawyers have taken on powerful institutions, such as the MTA, on behalf of our clients. Our NYC subway accident lawyers are able to represent clients who have been injured in all types of accidents, including:
- Trip-and-falls or slip-and-falls
- Assaults on the subway
- Injuries caused by sudden stops
- Derailments
- Collisions
- Getting caught in doors
We will closely review the circumstances behind your accident and bring claims against the responsible parties, including the MTA. The MTA enjoys a number of unique legal protections. For instance, you must file a Notice of Claim with the MTA within 90 days of your accident. If you do not take this step, your claim cannot proceed. Our law firm understands these sometimes subtle, but very important, distinctions in claims involving the MTA. You can rely on our attorneys to overcome any procedural obstacles while fighting to compensate you for your medical expenses, lost income and other damages.
The earlier our law firm is involved in your case, the better we can prepare your claim. Give us a call at 1-866-516-5887 or e-mail us to schedule a free, confidential case evaluation. There are no attorneys' fees unless we are successful in your case. If your injuries prevent you from traveling to our office, we can come to your home or the hospital.
