Personal Injury Attorneys Advocating for Train Accident Victims

Pertinent Information About Subway and Train Accidents:

New York City transit agencies have a legal responsibility to protect their commuters by ensuring that all subway and train stations are effectively organized and supervised. Rules and Regulations mandate that all subway and train personnel are properly trained. When a subway or train accident occurs, the same entities can be found liable for negligently failing to properly maintain, operate, or regulate the conditions that caused your injury. The Licatesi Law Group understands and sympathizes with you considering how terrifying an experience like this can be when you lose power over the circumstances that created the accident. With over 40 years of experience in handling subway and train accident cases, our attorneys are committed to helping you obtain the justice that you deserve for your losses and harm you sustained.

What Constitutes a Lawsuit Against a Subway or Train Operator/Supervisor?

There are many situations that can create a possible personal injury lawsuit against a subway or train employee. These can include:

• Slip and Falls
• Employee or Employer Negligence in Operating Subway or Train Equipment such as:
  • Door malfunctions
  • Turn Stile defects
  • Inadequate or Deficient Warning Signs
  • Unanticipated Stops
  • Striking a Pedestrian
  • Negligent operation of the train/subway
  • Amputation
  • Death

Lawsuits Can Go Beyond Mere Negligence:

In addition to situations where a person is injured because of a dangerous condition, New York transportation establishments can also be held liable in premise liability suits if they fail to implement adequate security measures to ensure that aggressors do not assault commuters. This can include situations where a passenger is physically assaulted, robbed, or sexually assaulted in a train or subway station.
