Dear Mr. Sammons, I wanted to send this thank you note to you and all your staff who worked on this settlement for me. I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into getting it for me. Thank you again. I really do appreciate what you did.

Anonymous Client

Thank you so much. You did an amazing job with my claims. I never expected to collect so many checks. You did everything you said you would and more.

E.L. Sr.

I cannot say enough about your law firm. You took my case to trial when the defendant offered nothing. When the jury gave us over $4 million dollars I was so relieved. You're the best!

Overview

Railroad Asbestos Claims & Settlements

Railroad workers who were exposed to asbestos on the job before 1982 may be entitled to significant financial compensation. Court-ordered trust funds totaling over $30 billion have been established specifically to compensate victims of asbestos exposure — without the need for lengthy litigation.

Asbestos was commonly used in locomotives, freight cars, cabooses, railroad shops, and throughout rail infrastructure. Decades of exposure have led to serious illnesses including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis among railroad workers across the country.

Sammons & Berry, P.C. has been filing these claims for over 30 years and knows exactly which trusts apply to railroad workers — and how to maximize your recovery.

  2. 2

    Provide your work history, including the railroads you worked for and the dates of employment.

  3. 3

    We determine which asbestos trust funds you are eligible to file claims against based on your exposure history.

  4. 4

    We handle all filing, documentation, and negotiation — you receive your settlement checks.

Know Your Rights

Confronting Asbestos: Legal Rights for Railroad Workers

Federal law and the asbestos trust fund system were designed specifically to make this process accessible, even decades after initial exposure.

You do not need to file a lawsuit. You do not need to pay anything upfront. And you do not need to face this alone. Sammons & Berry, P.C. has spent over 30 years ensuring railroad workers get every dollar they are owed.
