Achieving Just Compensation for Bus Accident Injuries

The capacity of buses to hold numerous passengers means that, in the event of an accident, there is the potential for mass injuries and even fatalities. If you or a loved one has been injured in a bus accident, Silver Law Firm can help. Whether you were riding in a metro bus, a charter bus, a school bus, a tour bus, or a shuttle bus, we will determine who is responsible and hold them financially accountable for your injury.

The responsible party can vary depending on the circumstances. If the bus driver was impaired – through alcohol, drugs, fatigue, or distracted driving – they can be found to have contributed to the crash. If the bus had unaddressed maintenance issues or experienced mechanical failure, then the company that owns or manufactured the bus can be liable. If a governmental entity – such as a school district or transit authority – owns the bus, then they may be partly to blame.

When you step onto a bus, you put your life into someone else’s hands. If you’re injured, they must take responsibility. Silver Law Firm’s seasoned personal injury attorneys can thread the needle of California’s complex bus accident regulations and ensure that you receive the compensation you need for a complete recovery.
