Railroad Crossing Crashes

A railroad crossing is particular type of intersection. Because a train is difficult to stop, the safe design of crossings is even more important in avoiding conflicts that are likely to result in catastrophic injuries or death.

There are many engineering issues that factor into whether a railroad crossing is adequately designed and protected. After a crash occurs, it is important to conduct a timely and thorough investigation into the history of the crossing and the circumstances leading to the railroad crossing collision.

Unfortunately, there are many legal obstacles that these types of cases must face and overcome. Our firm has experience in successfully building railroad crossing crash cases and obtaining substantial recoveries for the families of those injured or killed at inadequately designed and protected crossings.
