Was Your Child Injured in a School Bus Accident?
When children leave the home to go to school, every parent has to assume that the school bus will take proper care of their child. However, acts of negligence can happen going to and from school, and children can be injured as a result. Was your child run over by a bus, hit by a bus or did he or she suffer injury on the bus as a result of a fall, bullying or a crash? Whatever the circumstances, we strongly encourage you to talk to a lawyer as soon as possible.
Naturally, your first concern is the health and well-being of your injured child. However, the sooner a lawyer is on board to advocate for you and your child, the greater the likelihood is that important evidence will be preserved. This evidence will help prepare the strongest possible case to obtain the compensation that you need to cover medical bills. You and your injured child may also be able to recover compensation for pain and suffering.
Assuming that the school bus belonged to a public entity such as a school district, different procedures may apply than those in an "ordinary" personal injury claim. Filing deadlines may come more quickly, for example. A well-established personal injury law firm such as Dane Shulman Associates, LLC, can be a valuable ally to help ensure that your child does not miss a single opportunity to recover the compensation they will need after a school bus injury.
