Brooklyn MTA Accident Attorney
As public carriers, bus companies have a strong legal duty to protect their own passengers from harm. Bus companies also have a responsibility to make sure that their drivers avoid collisions by driving safely and responsibly, just as every other driver is supposed to do.
I am Daniel A. Kalish, a Brooklyn, Westchester County and Bronx bus accident attorney dedicated to pursuing fair compensation for people who have been injured by negligent bus drivers and bus companies. For a free consultation with an experienced trial lawyer, contact me today.
Moving Quickly to File Your Claim Within the Deadline
Most of the public bus lines in the New York metro region are operated by government agencies, such as the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), the Manhattan and Bronx Surface Transit Operating Authority (MaBSTOA) and the Bee-Line Bus System.
New York state law places strict time limits on auto accident and other personal injury lawsuits against municipalities and public authorities, including bus companies.
If you have been injured in a bus accident, you need to bring your claim for compensation within 90 days of the accident. If you miss the deadline, you must get permission from a judge to pursue your claim. Judges frequently refuse to give permission for late filings.
Providing Personal Attention to Your Case
As a solo practice lawyer, I take personal responsibility for every case I accept. I will move quickly to document the evidence in support of your bus accident claim so I can get it filed promptly and begin the process of seeking the compensation you deserve.
Whether you have been injured while riding a bus or in a collision with a bus, I may be able to help you pursue a claim for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Don't hesitate to contact a Brooklyn bus collision attorney to schedule an appointment.
