AT TY

 

we are plaintiff's attorneys, but with a difference — we are also experienced trial lawyers. This gives our clients an added advantage because companies and insurance carriers do not pay the maximum value unless they know the case is prepared for trial and that the lawyers are willing to go to court. While other law firms prefer to negotiate settlements to avoid trial, we prepare cases for trial as quickly as practicable. This puts maximum settlement pressure on our opponents, and forces them to decide whether to enter into a proper settlement or risk a large jury verdict similar to those we have achieved in the past. This is what sets the Tavormina & Young firm apart. We take great pride in the verdicts we have won for our client’s, year in and year out.

 

The lawyers at Tavormina & Young specialize in the Federal Employer's Liability Act. The Federal Employer's Liability Act is a Federal Law that governs on the job injuries for railroad workers. It is a highly specialized area of the law with a limited amount of practitioners in the field.

 

Steve Young and John Tavormina have tried more FELA cases in Texas for injured rail workers in the last 5 years than any other practicing lawyer in Texas. Together they successfully tried the first locomotive vibration case in the southwest and the first case of repetitive trauma caused by getting on and off moving equipment.

 

Steve Young has been honored by both the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen and the United Transportation Union to be appointed as Designated Legal Counsel. The designations are important as both unions recognize Steve’s expertise in the field of the Federal Employer’s Liability Act and recommend him to their respective members. Steve is the only lawyer in Texas designated by both the BLET and the UTU.

 

Experience in the courtroom makes the most of a case. The Tavormina & Young lawyers and staff use their trial experience to make the most of your case.
