Catastrophic Train Accidents And Their Aftermath
Train vs. bike accidents often result in catastrophic injuries for cyclists. Due to the size and speed of trains, these accidents can lead to life-altering consequences. Common injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord damage
- Paraplegia
- Quadriplegia
- Amputation
- Disfigurement
- Wrongful death
Our lawyers have a history of obtaining great results for our clients. We are not afraid to take on powerful train companies and win.
The Complexity of Train Accidents Means You Need An Attorney
Seattle train accidents are particularly complicated. There may be additional third-party sources of liability, such as negligent parties responsible for unprotected crossings or crossing alarm failures. The train company has its own powerful lawyers and insurers who will fight claims aggressively, especially since damages for riders can be very high. You need a Seattle bicycle injury lawyer who understands these complexities and can navigate the legal landscape effectively.
