Train Accidents
According to the Federal Railroad Administration, in Illinois there are over 175 train accidents and over 40 train related deaths per year on average. If you have been injured in an accident as a train passenger, car driver, or pedestrian, we are here to help. We also help train workers who have been injured on the job. We will work on cases against METRA, the CTA, Amtrak, and other railroad companies.
Railroad accidents can result in serious injuries such as fractures (broken bones) involving surgical repair, traumatic head injuries, various back & neck injuries, and sometimes death. We will work to help you make a monetary recovery for your pain and suffering, medical expenses, loss of income, disfigurement, loss of normal life, and any other losses sustained in the accident.
If you have been injured in a train accident, call our office at (866) 99-ABELS or contact us online to speak to a lawyer directly.
