Profile
The Gold Standard in Railroad and Injury Law
Hoey & Farina is a nationally recognized personal injury law firm with a dedicated office in Springfield, Illinois. While they handle a wide range of injury claims, they are most famous for their leadership in FELA (Federal Employers’ Liability Act) litigation, representing injured railroad workers across the United States. Founded on a commitment to the working class, the firm has secured hundreds of millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements. Their Springfield office on Robbins Road allows them to serve clients in Central Illinois with the same intensity and resources usually reserved for major metropolitan hubs 🚆.
Protecting Railroad Workers
Railroad work is dangerous, and when accidents happen, federal law (FELA) governs the compensation process, not standard state workers’ compensation. Hoey & Farina’s attorneys are masters of this distinct legal niche. They represent conductors, engineers, and maintenance of way employees who have been injured on the job due to negligence or unsafe conditions. Their expertise also covers FRSA Whistleblower protection, ensuring that workers who report safety violations are not retaliated against by their employers.
Comprehensive Personal Injury
Beyond the rails, the firm applies its trial-tested strategies to all forms of Personal Injury. This includes serious automobile accidents, semi-truck collisions, and construction site injuries. They understand that a catastrophic injury-whether a traumatic brain injury or a spinal cord fracture-changes a life forever. The legal team works with medical economists and life care planners to calculate the true cost of an injury, ensuring settlements cover future medical needs and lost earning capacity, not just immediate bills.
Trial-Ready Representation
Hoey & Farina is not a ”settlement mill.” They are trial lawyers in the truest sense, preparing every case as if it will go before a jury. This reputation for courtroom aggression often forces insurance companies and corporate defendants to offer fair settlements to avoid trial. Their attorneys, including James Farina and William McMahon, are highly respected by both the bench and the bar for their professionalism and ethical standards.
Client-First Philosophy
The firm prides itself on being accessible to clients 24/7. They know that questions and anxiety don’t stop at 5:00 PM. Whether you are a local resident injured in a car crash or a railroad worker facing a career-ending injury, Hoey & Farina offers a free consultation to evaluate your case. They operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless they win your case 🤝.
