Railroad (FELA) Injury Lawyers
in Denver and throughout Colorado and Wyoming
As a result of the high rate of death and injuries among railroad employees, FELA-the Federal Employers' Liability Act-was passed to ensure that railroad employees had recourse to sue their employers for injuries caused by unsafe working conditions and other dangers endemic to railroad jobs.
Some of the common claims under FELA include traumatic injuries, brain damage caused by use of toxic solvents, and other injuries.
