California MetroLink & Train Accident LawyersTrain accidents are amongst the most violent and dangerous types of transportation accidents a person can survive. Railroad accidents may involve freight or passenger trains, locomotives, subways, or local commuter train systems. Due to the speeds that the passenger cars travel and the lack of protection typical train seating affords its passengers, the end result of train accidents is almost always catastrophic injury and very often, death. The Los Angeles personal injury attorneys at Panish, Shea & Boyle have extensive experience handling -- and leading -- complex cases involving the complicated laws that govern railroad and train accidents. Our firm was a member of the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee of both the Placentia Metrolink Train Crash and the Glendale Metrolink Train Derailment. This means we were in charge of directing the litigation for the plaintiffs. Panish, Shea & Boyle has a strong record of recovering significant verdicts and settlements for its clients. Our attorneys have won the largest verdict in American legal history; the largest defective tire verdict in the United States; and the largest verdict ever awarded against the City and County of San Francisco. In fact, we have won more than 150 verdicts or settlements of $1 million or more, including several substantial train accident verdicts. Panish, Shea & Boyle, LLP is scheduled to try the first case from the Glendale Metrolink Train Derailment (Janovici v. Metrolink). Our firm was a member of the Plaintiff's Steering Committee of both the Placentia Metrolink Train Crash (Sorensen v. Metrolink) and the Glendale Metrolink Train Derailment.
