on the job? Railroad workers' job related injuries are covered under a special federal
provision known as the Federal Employers Liability Act or FELA. FELA is similar to workers' compensation,
except that you have to prove that the railroad was negligent in your accident, instead of
just the injury occurring on the job. This seemingly small distinction is why you should
seek legal help immediately after an injury. If it can be proven that the railroad was
at fault for your injuries, you are entitled to four categories of damages.
Past and future
medical expenses, past and future wage loss, past and future disability and disfigurement,
and past and future pain and suffering. These damages can add up to a sizable monetary award. Receiving FELA compensation is your right,
but the law is very complex. The Helios Legal Group can help.
And there are no upfront fees. Don't be a victim. Get the help you deserve.
