Railroad Accident Attorney in Sugar Land

Serving Clients Throughout Texas

Sugar Land has a rich history in the railroad industry. From the Sugar Land Railway Company chartered on April 14, 1893, to the state-of-the-art Rail Monitoring System developed by the Texas A&M Transportation Institute, Sugar Land has been a crossing point for railroads for well over a century. Sugar Land continues to modernize and increase safety along its railways, particularly along US 90-A. Current safety efforts include railroad preemption, wayside horns, and the railroad monitoring system. 

Unfortunately, railroad accidents still happen. If you or a loved one is injured in a railroad accident, you deserve a fierce, dedicated attorney who will fight hard to get you the recovery you need. At the Karam Law Office, we are a client-first railroad accident law firm. We always have your best interest at heart and will ensure that you get the best possible outcome in your case.

COMMON TYPES OF RAILROAD ACCIDENTS

Some of the most common types of railroad accidents include:

  • Derailments
  • Collisions
  • Railroad crossing accidents
  • Railroad signal failures
  • Train-pedestrian accidents
  • Car or truck stuck on the track

No matter the circumstances of the railroad accident, you might be entitled to recovery for your injuries. You should always discuss your case with a knowledgeable Sugar Land Railroad Accident Lawyer before accepting a settlement. If you are involved in a train wreck, the damages you can seek will depend on the extent of your injuries and the factors that contributed to the accident.

COMMON CAUSES OF RAILROAD ACCIDENTS

Some of the most common causes of railroad accidents and train wrecks include:

  • Conductor error (distracted driving or speeding)
  • Damaged or neglected track
  • Warning signal failure
  • Vehicle stuck on the track
  • Negligence
  • Human error
  • Lack of training
  • Improperly loaded cargo
  • Brake or another mechanical failure
  • Poor visibility

There may be multiple factors that contribute to a railroad accident. Even if you are partially at-fault, you may still be able to collect. This list is far from exhaustive. Train collisions generally result in severe injuries or death to passengers or other drivers. If you were involved in a train accident, you need to act fast to protect your rights and recovery.

When I first got in my car accident, I initially didn’t even consider a lawyer, but due to a referral I am so glad I did. I suffered significant injuries requiring surgery. Originally the hospital just slapped a sling on my broken clavicle and told me not to move it for 3 weeks while we wait for surgery. Jacob was able to get me into have surgery 4 days later. He handled everything. From my surgery to my PT. I never saw a single bill. His staff was friendly, professional and made it a point to check up on me. At a time where my life was turned upside down, it was nice to know someone else was in my corner, and my only job was to heal. 6 months later I am still healing but my case has already been settled and I got waaaayyyy more than I ever thought back in my pocket. It’s clear that Jacob and his team truly does care about the recovery and results of their clients and not just about collecting their fee. I am glad I went with Jacob and would recommend him to anyone. Calling his team was the best decision I could have made.
