Claims against public defendants have special procedural hurdles
An experienced lawyer's advice can help protect your claim against a public transit agency or other governmental defendant. Some public entities, such as the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, are protected by a one-year statute of limitations, so time is of the essence in the investigation and presentation of your claim. Most public or municipal defendants will require a tort claim notice that describes their potential liability prior to filing a lawsuit.
With long experience with New Jersey personal injury law and trial practice, Fred Rabinowitz brings a seasoned lawyer's perspective to the legal and strategic dimensions of your case. He can help you resolve such public transit accident claims as the following:
- Commuter train crash or derailment injuries
- Railroad crossing accidents

- School, church or charter bus accidents
- Workplace accident claims on behalf of injured bus drivers or railroad personnel
Our law firm combines close personal attention to every client's case with a detailed investigation of the facts and the law related to your claim.
