FELA Litigation

Contact a FELA Litigation Attorney Regarding Railroad Accidents and Occupational Illnesses

Have you been diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer or any other illness or condition that most likely resulted from your exposure to asbestos or other toxic substances on the job? Or were you seriously injured in an accident while employed with the railroad? Contact an attorney at the Louisville, Kentucky, law firm of Sales & Satterley, to schedule a free initial consultation to discuss your situation and potential sources of compensation.

Railroad work is a rewarding but dangerous occupation.

When injuries occur on the job in railroad yards, those injuries tend to be severe: amputations, crush injuries, head injuries and spinal cord injuries are not uncommon. Perhaps you suffered the ultimate loss when your husband or other close family member was killed in a train accident while employed with the railroad.

FELA offers relief for injured railroad workers.

Whatever your particular situation, any injury or death resulting from dangerous conditions in railroad employment have a time-honored legal remedy. FELA (the Federal Employer Liability Act) was signed into law by Congress more than 100 years ago in acknowledgment and recognition of the hazardous conditions that are inherent in railroad work. This legislation is applicable in the case of occupational illnesses such as mesothelioma as well as in the case of catastrophic, accidental injuries such as loss of a hand, foot, hearing or eyesight.

Our law firm has achieved many successful outcomes on behalf of injured railroad workers.
