The Washington Metropolitan Area has one of the most extensive, widely used, and efficient public transit system in the country. The Washington Metropolitan Transit Association, along with the Maryland Area Regional Commuter (MARC), Virginia Railway Express (VRE), and Amtrak trains provide quick and convenient rail service for thousands upon thousands of people each day. Additionally, the DART, TheBus, Ride On, Fairfax Connector, Circulator, and CUE buses provide convenient local transit. Even though these transit systems are generally safe, accidents do happen as a result of negligence; unfortunately, many of these accidents cause serious injury, and, in the worst cases, death.
Damages for public transit injuries are sometimes more difficult to pursue than are claims against private entities, because the claimant has to deal with the municipal authorities. Our attorneys will tenaciously pursue your claims with all the responsible parties, be they the bus drivers, station staff, or the planners of the system as a whole. Just because public transit is a public service does not mean that it ought to be considered immune to responsibility for its negligence.

How the work begins
The first conversation is with the attorney, not an intake service. We look at the documents you already have, identify what is missing, and give a direct assessment of the position — including when the honest answer is that a claim is not worth bringing.
If we take the matter on, you receive a written engagement agreement setting out scope and fees before any work starts. Where a case crosses borders, we coordinate with counsel in the relevant jurisdiction rather than improvising outside our own.
