Fort Myers Bus Accident Attorney

Buses are a common sight in Fort Myers and the surrounding area. They are convenient for taking children to and from school, showing tourists around, or getting a ride across town. 

Most bus rides are completed safely. However, bus accidents sometimes happen, and when they do, they can result in catastrophic injuries.

Why Do I Need a Fort Myers Bus Accident Attorney?

Bus accidents are usually more complex than most passenger vehicle accidents. Multiple parties, insurance companies, and defense attorneys are likely involved.

An experienced Fort Myers personal injury attorney knows how to investigate your accident, determine causation and liability, and collect strong evidence to prove your claim.

Being represented by an experienced Fort Myers bus accident attorney significantly improves your chances of recovering maximum compensation. 

Liability in Bus Accident Claims

In a bus accident, multiple parties may be at fault. At Garvin Injury Law, our attorneys carefully investigate your accident to help determine all causes and potentially liable parties. 

Some potentially liable parties in a Fort Myers bus accident case include:

  • A negligent automobile driver
  • The bus driver
  • The bus company
  • The manufacturer of the bus or car
  • A government entity
  • A negligent maintenance company
  • A pedestrian
  • A bicyclist

Our Fort Myers bus accident attorney will hold all at-fault parties responsible for paying the full value of your damages. 

How Much Can I Recover in a Bus Accident Claim?

The amount of your recovery depends mainly on the severity of your injuries and the insurance policy limits that provide coverage for your damages. 

In a successful Fort Myers bus accident claim, you may be able to recover economic and non-economic damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and other tangible and intangible losses. 

Only in rare cases can you recover punitive damages. Florida law limits the award of punitive damages to cases involving intentional misconduct or gross negligence. 

“They made communication easy, seamless, and they were always very quick to respond.”

I was really pleased with the level of service from Garvin Law. They immediately stepped in when the service from a prior attorney was lacking. They made communication easy, seamless, and they were always very quick to respond. The staff was incredibly helpful and pleasant and took the time to answer any questions and really hand hold along the way. Hopefully, I never need the services of attorney for a car accident again, but if I do, this is where I am coming. I would highly recommend them.

  • Lack of driver training
  • Negligence by the bus company

We know what to look for and how to investigate your accident to help determine all causes and all liable parties to maximize your compensation.

  • Broken and crushed bones
  • Whiplash and other neck injuries
