John Anderson Law provides dedicated support and determined representation to California clients hurt in train accidents of any kind, including train accidents caused by:
- Collision with another train
- Derailment
- Collision with a car, bus or pedestrian
- Mechanical failure that leads to an accident
- Inadequate security on the train
- Dated and unsuitably maintained tracks
- Conductor negligence
- Inadequate lookout
Being involved in a train accident can result in catastrophic injuries, including broken bones, burns, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury.
The most common types of train accidents are collisions with other trains, collisions with passenger vehicles, and single train accidents.
Millions of Americans use the train every single day. In some cities, like Chicago there are large commuter trains that carry thousands of people into the city for a cheap price and give them the opportunity to get off the road. It's not without danger though, when those trains are not properly maintained, when track lines are neglected or safety policies not enforced – dangerous things can happen.
Railroad wrecks, like the Metrolink collision in California, cost victims their lives or leave them in serious or critical condition. Train accidents have a higher likelihood of resulting in serious injuries than car accidents due to their sheer size and weight.
