Santa Clarita Train Accident Attorneys
Train Crash Accident Cases Requiring a Lawyer
Train accidents are not as common as car accidents. However, when they do occur, they can lead to catastrophic injuries and, in severe cases, death. The speed, force, and weight of a train can lead to a larger impact than that of other motor vehicles.
Whether because of defective railroad crossings, equipment malfunction, or other foreseeable circumstances, if someone is injured in a train accident, they may be entitled to compensation. This is where a train accident attorney comes into play.
At the Law Offices of C. Ray Carlson, our Santa Clarita train accident lawyers have been fighting on behalf of catastrophically injured victims and their families since 1980. In our decades in practice, we have successfully secured millions of dollars for our clients, allowing individuals and families to get back on their feet and move forward in the wake of devastating accidents. We are here to listen to your story and share how we can help you fight for the maximum recovery you are owed.

- Defective guardrails and other safety features at crossings
- Collisions with other vehicles or objects
- Improper supervision
- Defective construction
