San Francisco MUNI Accident Lawyer

MUNI, or the San Francisco Municipal Railway, has a long tradition in the city, and people depend on the system to get to work, visit friends or travel to leisure time activities. The famous cable cars are part of MUNI, as are buses, trolleys, light rail trains, subways and streetcars. The network provides hundreds of millions of rides each year to people in San Francisco. To speak to a San Francisco MUNI accident lawyer today, call or email us.

MUNI is operated by the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, which is a semi-independent agency of the city of San Francisco. It is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of this transit system. When MUNI accidents and injuries occur as a result of another party’s negligence or misconduct, injured persons or the families of those who died may be able to seek redress. At Mary Alexander & Associates, P.C., our lawyers advocate for clients who suffered injuries or whose loved ones died as a result of negligence involving a streetcar, bus or trolley. We file lawsuits and participate in pretrial negotiations in pursuit of fair compensation for injured clients.

Examples of MUNI Accidents

We handle cases that arise from:

  • Pedestrian-transit accidents
  • Turning without signaling or stopping
  • Inadequate driver training
  • Fatigued drivers
  • Drivers under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Reckless operation
  • Improper maintenance of vehicles
  • Defects in vehicles or equipment

Our MUNI accident attorneys in San Francisco have succeeded in cases such as these because of our thorough preparation and our use of courtroom technology that allows us to tell our clients’ stories effectively. We ensure that the juries understand the consequences of the injuries to our clients, their work and their families. We consult with experts in fields such as medicine, traffic safety, engineering and other areas so that we are able to explain how the accident occurred in words that non-specialists can understand.
