New and Growing Incident Scenarios with Big Damages.

Uber & Lyft

Part of the Largest Criminal Enterprise this country has ever seen. They make much of their money stealing and selling the personal information of their passengers – and everyone in their passengers’ social media networks. These companies cannot afford to go to trial – and have someone like myself explain what they’re doing.

Motivcare and Veyo: Stealing Hundreds of Billions a year from our Healthcare System. All those wheelchair tipovers don’t happen for no reason. Don’t file only against the pawns in whose vehicles they occur. File against those in charge who cannot afford to go to trial – and have someone like me explain what they’re doing. DON’T LEAVE MONEY ON THE TABLE.

Safety Compromises

Half of all public transportation incidents are the result of deliberate compromises of passenger, pedestrian and public safety in return for other trade-offs. Learn more:

The Further Collapse of Fixed Route Transit

For those motorcoach owner-readers narrowly concerned about their businesses’ futures, they might note that Coach USA, the nation’s second-largest motorcoach company, recently filed for bankruptcy. Never mind that hints of this catastrophe were littering the transportation landscape as this latest victim’s motorcoach business had been thinning steadily as Coach USA

Testimony, Consulting & Mediation

Mr. Einstein served as an expert witness in nearly 700 lawsuits involving every mode of passenger transportation (and an occasional car or truck case). These include more than 150 involving crossing cases, 180 about boarding and alighting, 150 involving wheelchair and/or passenger securement, and almost every scenario imaginable (see Common Incident and Accident Scenarios).

Mr. Einstein specializes in cases involving elderly and disabled passengers and children. And he works on “both sides of the table.” He has served on several class action lawsuits and labor relations cases – and considers himself the leading expert in filing for injunctive relief, and the most creative and aggressive expert in identifying codefendants and (on the plaintiffs’ side) extracting the most in verdicts and settlements – often from codefendants many or most attorneys do not even know are involved (and often parties in charge). And particularly in cases involving door-to-door or curb-to-curb transportation, he has no equal, and specializes in defending contractors where the “lead agencies” have engaged brokers – all phonies, all ignorant, and many outright thieves.
