New York Train Accident Attorneys
Every day, hundreds of thousands of commuters in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut rely on commuter trains and other forms of rapid transit to get to work. While most of these trips are uneventful, passengers will occasionally suffer severe injuries while riding on the train. These accidents can have any number of causes. For example, the sliding doors can fail to work properly. Passengers may slip and fall on the train platform or while on the train. In thankfully rare, but highly publicized cases, trains can derail or collide with other trains. In any of these situations, an experienced injury attorney can be instrumental in helping you recover financial compensation for the expenses that arise out of your injury.
We are the New York City personal injury law firm of Rosenberg, Minc, Falkoff & Wolff LLP. Our law firm has forged a strong tradition of serving people who have been injured by the negligence of others. We are able to help people who have been injured on any commuter train line in the tri-state area, including:
- Long Island Rail Road
- Metro-North Railroad
- Staten Island Railway
- New Jersey Transit Rail
Each of these entities maintains a duty to passengers. When these entities, such as the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA), the Port Authority or the New Jersey Transit, fail to protect passengers from harm, our law firm will hold them accountable. Our NYC train accident attorneys will undertake a complete investigation of the accident and compile all evidence of your medical expenses, lost income and other damages. Our tenacious efforts frequently result in positive outcomes for our clients.
After any accident, the earlier you speak to a lawyer, the more your lawyer will be able to do in your case. In cases involving the MTA, it is necessary to provide it with a Notice of Claim no less than 90 days after the accident. Give us a call at 1-866-516-5887 or e-mail us to set up your free, confidential consultation.
