Commute rail train accident

Train crashes are relatively rare compared to other vehicle crashes. Even so, they still occur far too often and have often led to tragic injuries and preventable deaths. Research has shown a pretty steady death rate in the hundreds from 2005 to 2020, with the lowest year recording 669 deaths (in 2012) and the highest recording 903 deaths (in 2006). Inform yourself and your loved ones about your rights and what you can do in case an unfortunate event occurs on a train, we at The Cartwright Law Firm are here to support you.

If you’re in San Francisco or live in a Bay Area commuter town, then you’ve likely had to rely on public transit at one point or another. Perhaps you’re reliant on it regularly to get you to work, to school, or home. The broader point is that you’ve probably been reliant on trains at some point, and each time, you’ve had to rely on them to uphold a certain duty of care.

If your train crew failed to uphold such a duty of care, and that failure led to preventable injuries or deaths, then the negligent parties should be liable for any harm and losses caused. You want a San Francisco train wreck attorney from the Cartwright Law Firm handling your claim.

How Can A Lawyer Help You?

The legal system is an overwhelming, burdensome process for any one person to navigate alone. While you are dealing with your injuries, you want an experienced injury attorney taking care of the legal process for you. 

It can be challenging enough as is to pursue accountability from one defendant in your most common, garden variety, car-on-car motor vehicle accident. But when you’re dealing with a train wreck lawsuit, things are bound to be all the more overwhelming, confounding, and confusing.

For one, you may have to factor liability across an entire crew responsible for keeping the train running smoothly and safely. Moreover, that crew is likely to be staffed by either a major transportation corporation like Amtrak or state-run public transit service. Both are overwhelming opponents to confront alone.

Fortunately, you don’t have to confront them alone. As a matter of fact, a lawyer can lend a crucial helping hand in confronting them together, assisting you with resources like:

  1. Writing, filing, and organizing documentation
  2. Using accident reconstructions to pinpoint the facts
  3. Finding expert witnesses to strengthen your case
  4. Calculating an accurate estimate of your damages
  5. Representing your case professionally
  6. Counseling you on what to do most effectively

You’ll want a firm in San Francisco with train wreck attorneys versed in handling all of the above duties and experienced in representing cases similar to your own. Perhaps, you’ll want a firm with six decades of experience representing cases similar to your own.
