MUNI Accidents

Holding MUNI Accountable for Accidents

The Municipal Railway (MUNI) light rail and bus system is an important form of transportation for countless people in the Bay Area. Unfortunately, due to negligence on the part of MUNI operators, accidents are all too common. When this happens, MUNI should be held accountable. 

At the Law Offices of Sanford M. Cipinko, we have provided strong advocacy for injured people for nearly thirty years. We know how to aggressively pursue full compensation for our clients, and we have the record of results to prove it. 

Bringing more than 30 years of experience to mass transit cases

Our attorneys thoroughly prepare personal injury and wrongful death cases, fully expecting them to go to trial. This enables us to build strong cases against MUNI and other government entities such as the City and County of San Francisco and the State of California.

We are confident in our ability to ensure that government entities such as MUNI fairly compensate people injured by the negligence of MUNI operators. Our lawyers take the time to gather the facts. With a reputation for strong trial skills on our side, we will make it clear to the opposing attorneys that our clients deserve full and fair compensation. This approach often makes trial unnecessary. However, if a government entity won’t provide a fair settlement, we won’t hesitate to take the case to trial.

Handling all types of MUNI accidents

We handle cases involving all types of MUNI accidents, including:

• MUNI trains hitting cars, trucks and other motor vehicles
• MUNI trains hitting pedestrians and bicyclists
• Passenger injuries caused by sudden stops or doors closing too soon
