With approximately 470 train stations, more than 650 main line track miles for passenger service, and millions of riders every year, the New York train system is one of the most intricate and highly used systems in the country. New Yorkers and those who visit the state have the option of taking the subway or MTA as a major part of their daily commute. However, as affordable and convenient as the train system may be, riders are also subject to serious accidents. Unfortunately, train accidents happen all too often in New York.
If you or a loved one has been the victim of a train accident, you may justifiably be injured, traumatized, confused and overwhelmed. You may not know who or where to turn to for help in helping you obtain compensation for your injuries. It is important to know that you are not alone. The NYC train accident attorneys at Gersowitz Libo & Korek, P.C. understand the devastating emotional and financial toll a train accident takes on victims and their loved ones. We are ready to fight for your rights and make sure you are fairly compensated by those who have caused your injuries.
When you are injured in a train accident, it is important to learn about your options to hold all of the parties who caused your injuries accountable for their negligent actions. Determining the parties who may be responsible for your accident is a difficult and complicated task, especially when multiple parties are responsible for the accident.
As such, it is important for New York train accident victims to hire an attorney who has the experience, knowledge and the financial resources to closely investigate the facts of the accident and navigate the laws regarding the case.
In New York City, you have various options for traveling by rail, including Metro-North, Long Island Railroad, Amtrak, New York City Subway, PATH Train, and Port Authority Train. If you are injured in an accident in any of these train or subways systems, you may be entitled to compensation.

Our success in expertly handling train accident claims for our clients is apparent in the results we have obtained. One example of our train accident resolutions involves a settlement during trial in the amount of $975,000 on behalf of a 55-year-old man who was hit by a train as he attempted to disembark. The plaintiff suffered a below the knee amputation of his leg as a result of the accident.
Justice means getting fair compensation. Without the help of a train accident lawyer in New York to expertly handle your claim, you may not get the full compensation for your injuries.

When you get injured in such an accident and suffer serious injuries, you need the assistance of an experienced NYC train accident lawyer who can provide the experience, strategy, and commitment that yield results.
