Who Is Liable for Bus Accidents?

When a bus accident occurs, the question of liability is often the most important one. Why? Because in order to recover compensation, you need to prove that you were injured due to another party's negligence. Proving this is not always easy, but it is your best chance at recovering the compensation you need.

In most bus accident cases, the bus driver's employer is liable for damages. However, there may be other parties who can also be held liable for your injuries. These may include:

• The bus manufacturer
• The bus owner/operator
• The bus driver's employer
• The bus driver's bus company
• The bus driver's supervisor
• The bus driver's school
• The bus driver's employer's insurance company

There may also be multiple parties that can be held liable for your injuries. In this case, you will need to prove that each party was at least 1% liable for causing your injuries. This may be difficult, but our team is up to the challenge.

Seeking Compensation for Your Injuries

In most bus accident cases, you will be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.

You may be eligible to receive compensation for:

• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Property damage
• Loss of consortium
• Punitive damages

You will also be eligible for compensation if you were a passenger on the bus at the time of the collision. In this case, you will be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Loss of consortium

The bus driver's employer will be responsible for paying for all of these damages. However, the employer's insurance company may try to deny your claim. If this happens, you will need an experienced attorney to advocate for you.
