Mass Transit Accidents

Helping Victims of Mass Transit Accidents

An accident involving a bus, a subway train or another form of mass transit often cannot be handled in the same way as other types of motor vehicle accidents. These forms of transportation are typically operated by government entities. In many circumstances, claims against government entities are handled differently than standard motor vehicle claims.

At the Law Offices of Sanford M. Cipinko, our lawyers have the resources and tools to fight back on behalf of injured people. By putting more than 30 years of experience to work, we’ve developed strategies and techniques to aggressively pursue full compensation for our clients.

Handling all types of mass transit accidents

Our attorneys handle cases involving all types of mass transit accidents in San Francisco and throughout California, including:

• Train accidents, such as MUNI accidents and Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) accidents
• Bus accidents, such as AC transit accidents
• Trolley/cable car accidents
• Ferry accidents

In addition to handling accident cases involving government-operated mass transit, we handle cases involving privately-owned shuttle buses and other vehicles. Our lawyers represent pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists who have been struck by buses, trains and other forms of mass transportation, as well as people who were injured while using mass transportation.
