Bus Accidents
Our office represents clients injured in all types of Bus and Motor Vehicle Accidents. Buses account for a high number of serious and fatal motor vehicle accidents. Buses may become dangerous instrumentalities on our roads and highways, due to their large size, weight, high center of gravity and difficulty in control at speed and in inclement weather. Bus driver fatigue, inattention, lack of training, long hours of operation, “white line fever” and stress to keep schedule, all may be factors in the negligent cause of a Bus Accident. Poor or missing equipment, overdue inspection, bald tires, unnecessary blowouts, broken suspension components, worn brakes and other maintenance issues may also cause a serious or deadly crashes. Bus driver violations of Vehicle and Traffic Law provisions, such as speeding, failure to observe traffic conditions, failure to brake, failure to sound horn, improper lane change, improper turns and other violations of law also cause serious and deadly Bus Accidents.
Effective and experienced legal representation is required to determine the cause of your Bus related accident. Presentation of your case, many times in conjunction with Expert Witnesses, should be done in a seamless manner to obtain the best recovery allowed by law.
The law generally provides that an injured person is entitled to recover money damages for injuries proximately caused by the negligence of a civil defendant. “Negligence” has been defined as a departure from the generally accepted standard of care in the use, operation or maintenance of a motor vehicle. “Proximate Cause” means that an injury was the direct and foreseeable cause of negligence. Calculation of “money damages” may include pain and suffering, disability, loss of enjoyment of life, loss of income, medical expenses, future cost of care for the disabled, and such other considerations.
In many instances, trained and professional Expert Witnesses may be required for your case, including Accident Reconstruction Experts, Police Procedure Experts, Bus/Passenger Transportation Safety Experts, Medical Experts (your treating physicians and surgeons), Economic Experts and Life Care Planning Experts. These professionals may be required in either to clearly explain the nature of liability to the Court, or to explain the full nature of your injuries and losses, so that your Damage Award will be complete.
Too many vehicle operators are in a rush. People make mistakes and other innocent victims pay the price. The Law Office of Geoffrey D. Eberle is not able to cure your injuries, but we are able to represent you with the goal of obtaining every dollar for which you are entitled due to your serious injuries, expenses and economic losses caused by the negligence of another.
The law limits the time period within which you must protect your rights by filing a Complaint and/or taking other steps to “perfect” your rights. Otherwise you may forever lose your opportunity to seek and obtain compensation. Don't wait. To sleep on your rights may be fatal to your claim.
