Do You Have a Case?

Do You Have a Personal Injury or Wrongful Death Cases?

Houston, Texas Railroad Accident Attorney

"How could this have happened?"

That's the question anguished family members are asking when they arrive at the hospital bedside of a family member who has suffered serious injuries in a collision with a train.

What family members don't know is that this is an appallingly common occurrence throughout the country. It happens hundreds of times every year; causing injury and death to car drivers and passengers, truck drivers, and even pedestrians (often school children).

At Williams ◊ Kherkher, we understand. For almost 20 years, attorney John Fabry has been helping injured people achieve financial recovery from negligent railroads. We've seen first-hand the devastation caused by hazardous railroad crossings. Overgrown vegetation, broken or missing railroad crossing signals, or failure to sound the train horn can all cause deadly railroad accidents. That's why we're so committed to seeing that justice is done in railroad accident cases.

If you were seriously injured or a loved one has died and you believe that negligence on the part of the railroad may have contributed to the accident, contact our Houston law office.

Unsure If You Have a Case?

Railroad collision cases are more complex than you may think. Take a look at the video from some actual cases we've handled. You'll see how a variety of circumstances can contribute to the driver not being able to see or hear the train.

Because of the complexity of railroad crossing accident cases, we don't just base our case on photos or a police report. We always investigate the site personally. We talk to witnesses. We may bring in roadway engineering experts to examine the design of the railroad crossing.

Don't assume your loved one was careless or negligent. Don’t accept statements that "they were trying to beat the train," without checking. With train speed and visibility issues, it's possible for a vehicle driver to do everything they were supposed to do and yet be struck by a train. When that's the case, they deserve compensation.
