Florida Railroad Accident Lawyers
When a Railroad Accident Changes Everything, You Need a Firm Built for Complex Litigation
When you rely on rail systems for transportation or work around them, you expect operators and companies to maintain safe conditions. Unfortunately, negligence, poor maintenance, and safety failures can lead to serious railroad accidents with devastating consequences. At Silva & Silva, our experienced attorneys are committed to holding responsible parties accountable and securing justice for victims of railroad accidents.
Railroad Negligence
Silva & Silva is a firm of competent and experienced attorneys that will guide you through the legal maze, ensuring that your compensation is adequate and in line with what juries award in similar cases.
The United States’ railroad system consists of over 600 railroads, with more than 250,000 employees, 230,000 miles of track, 89,000 miles of signal and control systems, 1.2 million freight cars, and 20,000 locomotives.
This means of interstate transportation and cargo hauling is regulated by federal law, not state law, through the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49, Subtitle B, and Chapter II. It is important that a knowledgeable attorney represent you if you have been injured or if a loved one has been injured or killed in a railroad or transportation accident.
