Bus Accident Compensation | After an Accident
In order to go forward with a bus injury claim, the first thing that you need to do is report the claim to the bus company. I would report it to the bus driver while you’re still on the bus. They should provide you with either a form, a claim number to call, or the exact process that you need to follow. Once you have done that and given the most basic information including your name, the date, time and place of the incident, the next step should be to contact an attorney who has handled bus cases before. That attorney will then be able to guide you, and help you process the claim. If you’re unable to resolve the claim with the bus company, that lawyer will know how to investigate the claim, prove your case, and prove your injuries and damages at trial.
