How Do Bus Accidents Happen?

  • Speeding
  • Driving under the influence
  • Poor bus maintenance
  • Other vehicles

What Steps Should I Take After a Bus Accident?

Here’s what to do:

  • Call 911 and seek medical attention: Even if you feel fine, get checked out. Some injuries, like concussions or internal damage, may not show symptoms right away.
  • Report the accident to the police: Make sure an official report is filed and ask for a copy for your records.
  • Document the scene: Take photos of the crash site, vehicle damage, your injuries, and any relevant surroundings. These can be valuable evidence later.
  • Collect witness and driver information: Get names and contact details from any witnesses. Also, record the bus driver's name, contact info, bus number, and the transit company, if applicable.
  • Consult with a bus accident lawyer: Speak with an experienced bus accident lawyer in Phoenix as soon as possible to understand your legal options and have your rights guarded from the start.

Our FAQs

  • The moment you get into a crash with another driver, that motorist’s auto insurance company will start building a case against you—whether you were at fault for the crash or not. Even your own insurance company may try to get you to accept a quick settlement to protect their bottom line. In many cases, especially those involving serious and/or debilitating injuries, the only way to ensure you receive fair and just compensation that will cover all your accident-related expenses is to have an attorney on your side.
  • In the state of Arizona, you must be able to prove four elements of negligence in order to have a wrongful death claim: that the defendant owed the victim a duty of care, the defendant breached this duty, the breach contributed to the wrongful death, and the death caused compensable damages that the surviving family members are now seeking to be compensated for.
  • Whether or not your case goes to trial depends on numerous factors that are unique to each specific case, such as how cooperative the defendant is, how effective your own lawyer is, and so on. However, the vast majority of personal injury claims—roughly 90%—settle before trial. While this means your case likely won’t make it all the way to court, such matters cannot be determined in advance.
