Yes. California follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover compensation even if you were partially responsible. However, your compensation will be reduced by the percentage of your fault.
Not always. While railroad companies have a high duty of care, liability depends on the specific circumstances. They may be held accountable for negligence in maintenance, operations, or employee training, but other parties may share responsibility.
In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the accident date. However, claims against government entities, such as public transit agencies, often have a much shorter deadline—typically six months.
