Pennsylvania Train Accident Lawyer

On May 12th, 2015 Amtrak Northeast Regional Train 188, operating from Washington to New York, derailed in Philadelphia. This tragic train accident resulted in the death of 8 people with some reports stating that there were more than 200 injured and over 140 were hospitalized.  The NTSB is actively investigating.  But the latest reports seem to indicate that the train was proceeding at twice the speed limit set for that stretch of rail.

What should you do if you were involved in a Train Accident?

First and foremost you should seek proper medical attention and contact 1-800-LundyLaw before speaking with any representative of a train company or their insurance companies. It is always advisable to seek out the advice of an attorney experienced in these types of cases as soon as possible. There are laws that limit the amount of time you have to file a claim, and with mass transit systems owned or operated by government entities, that time limit may be shorter than you think.

For example, if a child is injured in a school bus accident and the bus is owned by a private company, the company can be held responsible for the actions of their driver. Even if a bus is owned by a city or state government, they may not be protected by sovereign immunity if negligence can be proven on the part of the driver or the governmental agency who may not have maintained their buses properly.
