Railroad
The firm’s railroad attorneys have substantial experience in a wide variety of claims and cases relating to personal injury, wrongful death, occupational injury, property damage, collections, property rights, eminent domain, and condemnation issues. We defend railroad companies in FELA and personal injury claims involving both traumatic injury cases and cases involving occupational exposure, such as asbestos, hearing loss, and repetitive stress injuries. We also defend railroad companies in grade crossing collision and trespasser claims that involve issues such as train handling, visibility, adequacy of warning devices, and federal preemption of claims. The firm is adept and experienced with FRSA whistleblower claims. Gallagher Sharp’s attorneys represent railroad companies in an aggressive yet cost-efficient manner, and are active, long-standing members of the National Association of Railroad Trial Counsel (NARTC).
