FELA - Railroad Accidents and Railroad Injuries

The Turley Law Firm lawyers can help you locate the best medical providers for your injuries. They stand up to the insurance company that is trying to keep you from getting needed medical treatment and compensation benefits. They make sure you follow the complex legal procedures and make sure you are timely with all case deadlines. They can help get your case resolved if you need to go on with your life.

The size and weight of trains, equipment failure, track defects, negligence and inattention all lead to serious injury when railroad accidents occur.

In the first quarter of 2009 alone, about 1,650 people were injured and 150 were killed in train accidents in the U.S. (according to the Federal Railroad Administration Office of Safety Analysis).

What is FELA?

FELA, or the Federal Employment Liability Act assures railroad employees a safe work place and gives them and their families the right to recover compensation if injured in a railroad related accident. Under FELA, injured employees can seek compensation for wage loss, future wage loss, medical expenses and treatments, pain and suffering, and for partial or permanent disability.

Common Railroad Injuries

Railroad employees are likely to experience any of the following types of injuries following a train accident:

* back and neck injuries
* burns injuries
* crushing injuries
* disfigurement
* electrocutions
* fractures
* loss of limbs
* permanent disabilities
* traumatic brain injury
* shoulder injuries
