FELA Railroad Claims
FELA is the Federal Employers Liability Act. It was enacted to help railroaders who are injured on the job.
If you are a railroader and have been injured on the job you should contact Higher Legal™ immediately. Unlike some other civil claims, FELA claims should be investigated by an FELA lawyer as soon as possible.
Be careful, often your employer will tell you that you should just file a Workers Compensation Claim. Many employers put pressure on employees to only file a Workers Compensation claim. There may however be a big difference in the amount you receive.
Here are a few tips to your successful FELA claim:
- Do not speak with a claims adjuster or an investigator until after you have spoken to a FELA lawyer.
- Find a FELA lawyer who is a specialist.
- Hire a FELA lawyer that is approved by your union.
- Be sure your FELA lawyer understands the terminology of your work.
- Fill out only the accident report required by the Book of Rules.
- Ask for a copy of the accident report that you fill out.
- Get the names of all witnesses to the accident.
- Seek medical treatment.
