New York City Bus Accident Attorneys
For many New Yorkers, bus travel is part of their everyday routine. But sometimes, careless or negligent driving on the part of bus drivers and bus authority owners cause accidents. Passengers or any injury victim involved in a bus accident are eligible to file a no-fault insurance claim to secure reimbursement for their medical bills, lost wages and to bring a law suit to recover damages for pain and suffering.
In New York, since the majority of the Transit Buses are owned and operated by a governmental body, strict and timely filing requirements apply. It is critical to secure the services of an attorney, as soon as possible following an accident, so that the necessary written claim is filed. The failure to file timely can be fatal to a claim.
