Why Do You Need A California Bus Accident Attorney?

Bus accidents introduce several complications to personal injury law, which is already inordinately complex. For example, the traffic laws and liability situations involved in bus accidents are often far more complicated than those in more conventional personal injury cases. Also, bus and transit accidents typically involve much more severe and complicated injuries. Those additional injuries often require more extensive medical intervention, treatments, and extended recovery time. All those things add to the already high financial toll associated with bus accident cases.

Fortunately, hiring our firm to represent you after a bus accident can all but eliminate the problems and complications mentioned above. If you’ve suffered an injury due to a bus accident, don’t hesitate to contact our team of caring and professional bus accident attorneys in California.

Reasons To File A Bus Accident Lawsuit

As mentioned above, bus accident lawsuits often introduce far more financial difficulties than other types of personal injury cases. However, that doesn’t mean that if you faced severe financial problems after an accident that all is lost. It’s possible to recover from the financial tolls experienced during these types of difficult situations.

Besides recovering lost finances like medical expenses, there are several other reasons to file a bus accident lawsuit in California. Some of those reasons include:

  • Financial recovery of lost assets and wages
  • Damages awarded for what is often called “pain and suffering”
  • Holding the at-fault party responsible for causing the accident
  • Helping prevent future accidents by bringing safety flaws and issues into consideration
  • Potentially help others injured or involved in the accident

Types Of Bus Accidents We Handle

Here is a quick list of the common types of bus and local transit accidents our team of attorneys typically handle in a court of law:

  • Sacramento Regional Transit Accidents: The Sacramento Regional Transit department provides public bus and transportation services throughout the city.
  • Oakland AC Transit Accidents: The A.C. Transit department provides public bus and transportation services throughout the city of Oakland.
  • School Bus Accidents: School bus accidents, while rather rare, do happen and often involve serious injuries and complicated legal battles. If your child suffered an injury due to a school bus accident, then reach out to us right away.
  • Private Bus Companies And Motor Coaches: There are several private bus and motorcoach companies throughout California. These cases are often very different than school bus or public transit accidents. Still, our attorneys have extensive experience with them nonetheless. Contact us to learn more about how our attorneys can help if you’ve been injured in a private bus or motor coach accident.
