California Bus Accident Lawyer

Bus Accidents

Every day, thousands of people board buses to get to work, school, shopping, and other destinations. We trust bus drivers to get us to our destinations safely. After all, bus drivers are professionals who must receive special training to obtain a commercial driver's license (CDL). And bus owners must follow standards to keep their vehicles and passengers safe.

Still, bus accidents cause thousands of injuries every year.

If you were injured or a member of your family died a wrongful death in a bus accident, please contact an attorney at The Reeves Law Group in California today. We are effective and experienced personal injury lawyers who have the resources and experience to successfully handle complex bus accident cases.

We can help victims of any kind of bus accident, including those injured on a:

• School bus
• City bus
• Charter or tour bus
• Airport shuttle
• Trolley

Commercial buses are common carriers that owe their passengers the highest possible standard of care because they transport passengers for a fee. Federal laws regulating common carriers are often more stringent than normal personal injury laws. At The Reeves Law Group, our attorneys understand the various laws and regulations bus owners and operators must follow. We will investigate the crash to determine whether regulatory violations were involved in your bus accident.

Causes of Bus Accidents

Bus accidents may be caused by driver negligence, inadequate security, dangerous roadways, defective products, negligence in hiring, and many other factors. Whether the bus plunged off an overpass, crashed because of brake failure, or was hit by an oncoming vehicle, we know how to help.

We will bring together a team of outstanding investigators and respected experts to determine the cause of the accident. Our bus accident attorneys will identify all possible sources of financial compensation. We will pursue a negotiated settlement for all of the damages you suffered in the bus accident, including pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage.

The vast majority of our bus accident claims are resolved outside of the courtroom. However, if the opposition refuses to be reasonable, we are prepared to argue your case before a judge and jury, where we have a history of success.

Please contact our law firm at (800) 644-8000 as soon as possible for a free consultation. Many bus accident claims must be filed within a specific period of time. Acting promptly can help you protect your rights.
