What Do I Do if I Was Hurt in a Bus Accident in Tampa?
Bus companies have a record of disregarding safety concerns for their riders. In 1968, the National Transportation Safety Board asked national bus carriers to install safety belts for passengers. Over forty years later, most buses still do not have belts. There are also questions about the strength of bus roofs and windows. Bus drivers can make mistakes due to fatigue, distraction or lack of proper training. All of these can lead to devastating accidents and catastrophic injuries for the victims.
When we take on a case, we meticulously investigate the accident and interview witnesses. We contact accident reconstruction experts as needed to establish our case for liability and we also contact our client’s physician to learn the care our client will require for full recovery. We prepare our claim seeking full compensation for medical expenses, hospitalization costs, loss of income, lost earning capacity, property damage and pain and suffering. Then, we make a diligent effort to negotiate a fair settlement with the insurance company.
