Defense in Civil Litigation Involving Train Accidents

There are multiple types of situations where railroad companies may need to defend against civil lawsuits.

Defending railroad crossing accident that resulted in injury or death requires an experienced attorney who understands federal and state railroad law and the issues that are often raised. As a member of the National Association of Railroad Trial Counsel, Scott Cain has years of successful experience in protecting railroad companies' interests. Mr. Cain understands the legal strategies necessary to provide an effective stance in crossing accident litigation.

Assisting Railroad Companies With Administrative Concerns

In addition to civil litigation, railroad companies may also need assistance with real estate or administrative matters. Zoning and land use issues can be complicated, and railroad companies may need to obtain special permits or variances in order to operate in certain areas. Regulations governing the railroad industry are constantly changing, and companies must stay up-to-date in order to avoid penalties.
