Who Pays You After a Bus Crash in California?
The party that holds legal responsibility for causing your collision may need to cover your losses in California. In many cases, we’ll consider filing a claim against the bus company or the driver at the time of the collision.
We also need to review the actions of other motorists potentially involved in the crash. In some cases, we may even pursue multiple parties to get you the compensation you need to move forward with your life.
Time Limits on California Bus Collision Claims
You must move forward with your legal claim before California’s personal injury statute of limitations expires. Generally, our state will only give injury victims two years to take legal action after a collision.
While California generally allows two years for personal injury claims, accidents involving government-operated buses require a formal claim to be filed within six months.
We need to carefully review your situation so we can give you precise information about the deadlines that apply to you.
Do Bus Accident Claims Take a Long Time to Resolve?
It can take months or even years to resolve a bus crash claim. You can minimize the time you have to wait to get the funds you need by hiring an attorney who is familiar with the procedural requirements of California bus accident claims.
We’re here to handle your case, and we will work to meet the legal deadlines and requirements relevant to your case.
