Mass Transit Accidents

New York Mass Transit Accident Lawyer

A bus crash or subway crash throws passengers from their seats. A subway train doorway malfunctions, injuring a rider. A train crash on the LIRR or an accident on the Staten Island Ferry causes passenger injuries.

If you were injured in a mass transit accident in New York, what are your rights and who will pay your medical bills and lost wages? When you are recovering from mass transit accident injuries, it is a good idea to have a personal injury attorney who cares about your recovery and who will handle claims against the mass transit provider. Each organization or municipality has different time limits for when to bring a claim. It is extremely important to seek consultation with Costello and Costello so you do not loose your right to make a claim.
