Railroad Worker Injury Lawyers

If you are a railroad employee who was hurt in an accident while working, whether for Union Pacific (UP), CSX, Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF), or any other railroad any compensation that you receive for your injuries will come under the provisions of the Federal Employers' Liability Act, also known as FELA. The railroad companies are very familiar with FELA. They have been fighting to overturn the law since it was enacted in 1908. If you file a claim under FELA, the railroads will use teams of investigators, private detectives and lawyers to try to minimize your recovery. You need the same thing on your side to protect your interests.
