Bus Accident Lawyers

We’re Here To Help

Buses are a common way to get around, but when something goes wrong, the results can be devastating. Passengers, drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists can all suffer serious injuries when bus drivers, companies, or others fail to act responsibly.

If you were hurt in a bus accident, we’re here to help. We’ll investigate what happened, find out who is responsible, and fight to recover the compensation you deserve.

Filing A Bus Accident Claim

If you were injured in a bus accident, you typically have two years to file a claim. If the bus was operated by a government agency, you may still have two years — but you’ll first need to file a special claim with the California State Board of Examiners. Claims involving a government entity require a formal notice within six months, so acting quickly is crucial. Missing these deadlines can prevent you from recovering compensation, so it’s important to act quickly.

At Sam & Ash, we’ll review your case and help you pursue full compensation for medical expenses (both current and future), lost wages, reduced earning potential, and pain and suffering. We’ll guide you through every step and make sure your claim is filed properly and on time.
