Dear Curtis,

I would like to express my gratitude for the way you have taken care of this case. Thank you for your advice and encouragement during a time when I was completely bewildered by what needed to be done and how very much needed doing.

You and your staff made a very difficult time much easier for me and I appreciate your work on my behalf.

Sincerely,

Darlene R.
Dear Mr. Beckcom:

I never got a chance to say thank you for the wonderful job you did on my daughter's case. My daughter will be graduating in June from High School with cum laude status. She will be attending college at U.T. Austin and majoring in Communications. Thanks to your efforts her college education has been taken care of. Thank you again from both of us.

I know that my attorney is good because he won my case and I would recommend him to others.
Words cannot express the thanks and gratefulness that we have for Vuk and his company. His tireless efforts and aggressive style meant the world to us and he changed our lives forever. I will always be loyal and grateful to V&B for taking on my case and being committed from the beginning until the end. I highly recommend these guys with 100% assuredness that they will work hard for you and help you receive what you deserve.

I would like to thank Brian Beckcom and his staff for their professionalism and their support. . . I knew when I met Brian that he was more than qualified to handle my father's wrongful death case . . .if I needed his help again I wouldn't hesitate to call.

Just when we thought we would never find someone who would listen to our story, V&B opened their doors to us. For one month, I spoke to 25 lawyers and the answer I received was "your case is a lost case, no one will ever represent you."

I sat on one of your juries early this year. I observed your eloquence and complete passion....you seem to be a man of utmost qualifications.

- Juror on one of Vuk's cases (name withheld)
Vuk, it has been such a wonderful experience working with you and your staff. Thank you so much for all the hard work that you did to help my family and I survive through the most difficult time of our lives.

Phuong N.
Houston, Texas
I was injured in an auto accident in Houston, and was referred to Vuk by another attorney. I couldn't work as a result of the accident and desperately needed back and knee surgery.. . . Vuk was able to get me a generous settlement within about a year of taking my case.

Steven R.
Deer Park, Texas
After my two-year old son was killed by an 18-wheeler driver and me and my daughter were badly injured, we hired Brian and Vuk to represent us on the recommendation of another lawyer.

This was the hardest time in our lives and it was great knowing we had you there to represent us.

What to Look for in a FELA / Railway Injury Attorney

If you’ve been hurt in a railroad accident, it may be time to hire an attorney. If you have never hired one before, this could be a difficult task. Do you just open the Yellow Pages and pick a lawyer? Should you use Google to find a FELA attorney on the internet? How do you know if they are even qualified to handle your case?

It is a good idea to interview the FELA lawyer you are thinking about hiring before you give him your case. Any good attorney will happily answer your questions in a straightforward, no-nonsense way. If you sense that your questions are making the attorney uncomfortable or if the attorney seems to be acting evasive, you may want to look elsewhere for legal representation.

If you need a lawyer for your FELA / railway injury case, here are some questions that you can ask:

How long have you been working on FELA cases? How many railroad injury victims have you represented? Ideally you want an attorney with a proven track record, not somebody who only just started taking cases last week – or somebody who has never taken a FELA case.
Have you handled a railroad injury case like mine before? It would be ideal if your situation isn’t new to your lawyer. You don’t want him or her learning on the job!
May I have a list of your FELA case results? If the attorney is reluctant to discuss his case history with you, it might be a warning sign that he or she lacks experience – or skill.
Who will work on my case? At some law firms, cases get farmed out to paralegals, junior attorneys or even to another firm entirely. It is important that you know who will be handling your case – there is no point in hiring a big name lawyer only to have him or her pawn the case off on somebody else.
Have you had a case against the same company before? There are only so many railroad companies in the United States, and an experienced lawyer will have experience with cases against most of the larger ones. Prior experience with the company you want to file a suit against is great because your lawyer will be that much more prepared.
Do you also represent railroad companies and insurance companies? An attorney who plays both sides may have a conflict of interest. You might want to try and find somebody who focuses on representing victims only.
Are you board certified, and if so in what field(s)? Do you carry malpractice insurance? Believe it or not, there are many attorneys out there who are not board certified and who don’t carry malpractice insurance. It is in your best interest to find one who is both certified and insured.

If you are looking for an experienced, straightforward attorney with plenty of FELA / railroad injury case experience, please contact the Houston based law firm Vujasinovic & Beckcom. Our lawyers have a list of impressive case results and a history of successfully handling a variety of railroad accident cases.
