F.E.L.A.

The Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA) was passed by Congress in 1907 to protect railroad workers, who are not covered by traditional workers' compensation plans should they be injured on the job. Under the FELA, employers are obligated to pay these benefits. Yet railroad workers are sometimes denied the benefits of the FELA. If this is the case, Cappolino, Dodd & Krebs can help.
