Experienced New England Attorneys Fighting Railroad Worker Safety Violations

You work in one of the nation’s most demanding, high-risk jobs. When you suffer a severe injury, it is not an “accident.” It is often a direct, devastating result of management cutting corners, ignoring rules or failing to maintain equipment.

Safety protocols are your essential shield. They prevent catastrophic injuries like traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), severe spinal damage and amputations, along with long-term, degenerative conditions caused by poor tracks or repetitive strain. When railroads violate these protocols, the law protects you.

The Federal Employers’ Liability Act (FELA) covers injured railroad workers. This critical law holds railroads financially accountable when their negligence – including safety violations – causes your injury.

At Naumes Law Group, LLC, we combine the high-quality litigation experience of large firms with the individualized, responsive representation you deserve. You will never be just a file number here.

Why Safety Regulations Are Your Shield Against Severe Injuries

Every safety rule exists to keep you from harm. When rules break, your health suffers. FELA is the key to holding the railroad company responsible for their failures and securing compensation for your long-term needs. This includes lost wages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering.

For over 35 years, our attorneys have handled all aspects of these complex FELA cases. We do not run an assembly line. We give every client the special treatment they deserve by meticulously identifying the subtle safety violations that caused their injuries.

Your Right To A Safe Workplace

The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) governs railroad safety at the federal level. These rules are complex. You need an attorney with deep experience to build an ironclad case against a well-funded railroad defense team.

We focus on violations related to fundamental FRA regulations, including:

• Track safety standards: Failure to maintain rail integrity and track geometry, leading to spinal and orthopedic injuries.
• Equipment and locomotive safety rules: Neglect of brakes, couplers and cab conditions, resulting in catastrophic trauma.
• Hours of service regulations: Violation of rest limits, causing fatigue-related errors that lead to preventable crashes.
• Operating practices rules: Failure to follow standards for train handling and signal compliance, increasing the risk of worker harm.

Our legal team knows how to investigate these specific failures to prove the railroad’s responsibility for your injuries under FELA.
