Public Transportation / Mass Transit Accidents

Massachusetts Public Transportation Accidents Attorney

Fighting for Maximum Compensation for Public Transportation Accident Victims

Massachusetts and federal public transportation law provides clear rights to users of mass transit. These laws protect train, bus, taxicab, limousine passengers and even people riding elevators and escalators. In the event of a mass transit accident, the accident victim has the right to take action against the transportation provider.

The most common causes of these mass transit accidents include:

  • Mechanical failures
  • Driver fatigue
  • Inadequate training
  • Driver distraction
  • Driving at an unsafe speed for the conditions

Public transportation agencies and companies have their own investigators and attorneys to handle bus accidents, train accidents, taxicab accidents and other mass transit accidents. Their sole purpose in life is to reduce or eliminate their own responsibility for your damages. That is why you need the public transportation law team at Percy Law Group, PC, on your side. If you or a loved one has been injured in a public transport accident, contact us for a free initial consultation.

Digging for the Truth: What Really Happened?

We stay focused on your case, your needs, your results, all the while fighting to protect your right to recover full, fair and complete compensation. That is our promise to you. Our dedicated personal injury team will dig to find out what really happened. We will ask very specific questions such as:

  • Was the company at fault for hiring of the driver?
  • What kind of driving record and accident history record does the driver have?
  • What types of insurance policies are there to use to protect recovery?
  • Was the driver under the influence, suffering fatigue, or using electronic devices during or prior to the accident?
  • Was excessive speed, braking aggressive turning involved?
  • Did the driver leave the station or stop too soon?
  • Was there proper maintenance of the station, floor, seats, windows, doors, stairs, etc.?
