Did you suffer an injury in a railway accident that wasn’t your fault? We’re here to help you move forward with a rail accident claim.

What is a Rail Accident Claim?

Compensation claims for rail injuries have a variety of different causes. For instance, you can claim for compensation when there is:

  • Poor weather conditions such as ice, snow, or slippery leaves;
  • Poor maintenance of train tracks and train cars by rail networks and train operators;
  • An obstacle on the track, like a tree branch;
  • Collisions with another train, or a vehicle at a level crossing;
  • Slips and trips inside the carriage or on the platform due to wet or uneven flooring;
  • Cuts from broken seats which sharp edges exposed;
  • Slips, trips and falls on a train;
  • Scalding from hot food and drink in the buffet car.

We can supply expert claims solicitors for these and other rail accident claims. We can also help you seek maximum compensation if you suffer from an industrial illness like on-the-job deafness, asbestosis, or vibration white finger.

Injuries caused by train crashes and derailments can have a devastating effect on victims and their families, in particular for those who suffer amputations or paralysis, or the families victims of fatal rail accidents leave behind.

Rail Accident Claims Case Study

Here’s an example of a successful compensation claim for a rail accident. In this case, a full luggage basket falls from the wall of a train and hits a woman on the head. After regaining consciousness, she discovers her head was bleeding. She later departs the train with assistance at the next stop for medical assistance.

Fortunately, she did not suffer any lasting repercussions from her head injury. However, legal investigations found the train company had been negligent in several areas. This includes maintenance of the train and the number of people on board.

As a result, the victim earns over £5,000 in damages.
