Bus travel is a vital part of San Diego’s transportation system — but when accidents happen, they can cause devastating injuries. Whether involving public transit, school buses, or private carriers, these cases often require navigating multiple layers of insurance and government liability rules. For more than 75 years, CaseyGerry has helped victims of serious bus accidents secure justice and rebuild their lives.
After a bus crash, taking the right steps can protect both your health and your legal rights:
Determining fault in a bus crash can be complex. Liability may rest with one or several parties, including:
– The bus driver for negligent operation or fatigue
– The bus company or transit authority for poor maintenance or training
– Government entities for unsafe roads or infrastructure
– Third-party drivers who caused or contributed to the collision
– Manufacturers of defective vehicle components
Our legal team investigates each case thoroughly, working with accident reconstruction experts and industry professionals to uncover the full picture.
Yes. Bus accidents often involve unique legal challenges:
– Multiple victims and insurance carriers
– Special procedures for claims against public agencies (such as MTS or school districts)
– Shorter time limits for filing government claims
Our attorneys understand California’s public liability rules and ensure your claim is filed correctly and on time.
Depending on the facts of your case, you may be eligible for compensation covering:
– Medical expenses and long-term care
