Railroad Worker Injury Attorneys
If you have been injured as a railroad employee, you need attorneys who are well versed in the provisions of the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA), which governs your right to recovery. FELA establishes a specific process for recovery and identifies the damages you may recover. Your employer will employ all resources available to minimize the amount you are paid.
The lawyers at Gordon & Elias, L.L.P., in Houston, Texas, handle all types of personal injury and wrongful death claims, as well as most commercial litigation, with an emphasis on claims under FELA. Contact the firm for a free initial consultation.

The firm fights aggressively to protect the rights of clients, providing dedicated and personalized services to victims of railroad company negligence. The firm has the experience and resources to pursue recovery from large corporate defendants, as well as big insurance companies.
