A: Yes, if you are a New Jersey or New York railroad worker who has been injured in an accident, or the survivor of a railroad worker who has been killed, then it is important that you hire an experienced New Jersey and New York railroad injury lawyer.
Railroad accident law is different from other types of personal injury law. The Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA) applies to many of these claims, and it is important that the specific requirements for filing a FELA claim are followed in order to maximize your chances of recovery.
Furthermore, the railroad industry has many inherent risks, and the specialized knowledge of an experienced New York and New Jersey railroad-accident lawyer can ensure that your case is properly investigated in order to maximize your chances of recovering damages.
Thus, while the law does not require you to hire a railroad-injury lawyer, you may be able to recover significantly greater damages if you do. Contact the railroad-accident lawyers of Hofmann & Schweitzer for more information about how a railroad injury lawyer can help you after a train accident.
