Do You Qualify for Compensation After a Bus Crash?
You may qualify for funds to cover all your economic and non-economic losses after a bus accident if a lawyer can establish that another party caused your injuries through negligence. Therefore, your attorney needs to show that:
- Someone else owed you a duty of care
- The other party failed to uphold their duty
- The at-fault party took an action that directly caused a bus accident
- The accident caused you injuries and financial losses
Your lawyer can immediately begin investigating the causes of your crash and determine if you can seek compensation.
What Funds Can You Get After a Bus Accident?
Depending on your situation, a Palmdale bus accident lawyer can help you secure compensation for your:
Medical Expenses
You may need extensive healthcare treatment for a concussion, spinal cord injury (SCI), broken bones, or internal injuries after a bus crash. A lawyer can track your current and future medical costs and include them in your claim.
Lost Pay
You could qualify for funds to cover your lost pay if you needed time off work to recover from a bus accident. In some cases, your lawyer may also bring you compensation for your lost earning potential.
Non-Economic Losses
In many cases, a lawyer can focus on the non-economic losses caused by your bus crash. These losses cover the emotional pain and suffering you experience because of a collision. Our team knows how to calculate the value of these effects.
Property Repairs
Your attorney can look at the costs of repairing your vehicle or other damaged property after a bus collision.

How Does a Lawyer Bring You Compensation for Your Losses?
Lawyers have two primary options available to secure compensation for individuals hurt in a bus crash. In many situations, our team will focus on negotiations with the insurance company that represents the liable party.
We know how to deal with the insurance company. We assess all offers they send and push back if they fail to offer sufficient compensation.
If the insurance company won’t consider a fair settlement, you can rely on us to help with a personal injury lawsuit.

(310) 526-8383 Why Pick Us After Your Bus Accident?
Our team has decades of combined experience handling complex legal claims. We recently brought a client $5 million after a bus collision, demonstrating our understanding of these crashes. You can see more examples of our work through our case results.
We provide a risk-free initial consultation so you can discuss your situation and determine if you have a valid claim to secure compensation.
Additionally, we take on bus accident claims using a contingency pricing system, so you only have to pay us for legal fees after we bring you compensation.
What’s the Deadline on a Bus Crash Claim?
You must file your bus accident claim before the statute of limitations expires in California. Therefore, you’ll typically have two years to move forward with a claim. Individuals who wait too long will lose their chance to secure compensation.
We will review your situation and provide information about the exact deadline for your claim. We also keep your claim moving, dealing with any stall tactics used by the insurance company to try to run out the time provided by the legal system.
Once you begin your claim, you can expect to wait several months for compensation if you settle with the insurance company. Lawsuits generally take longer to resolve in California.
