Bus & Public Transit Accidents

90 Years of Fighting for Maximum Compensation in Pennsylvania

Bus Accident Lawyers in New Castle

We Understand the Special Issues in Public Transit Accidents

Public transportation plays a vital role in keeping Pennsylvania communities connected. From daily commuters riding local buses to visitors exploring the region, residents depend on reliable and safe transit options. Unfortunately, accidents involving public buses, trolleys, or other transit vehicles can cause devastating injuries and long-term consequences.

Bus and public transit systems in Western Pennsylvania are governed by state and municipal regulations. Determining liability after a crash often requires a detailed investigation, including driver records, maintenance logs, and transportation authority policies. Injured passengers or pedestrians may face challenges when filing claims against government entities or insurance providers. Experienced PA personal injury attorneys understand these obstacles and work diligently to ensure that victims receive the justice they deserve.

Our personal injury lawyers can address every scenario involving buses:

  • Injuries while riding a bus or shuttle
  • Injuries at the bus stop or Park ‘N Ride lot
  • Pedestrians and bicyclists hit by buses
  • Car drivers and their passengers injured in bus collisions

We can help, whether the accident involved a city bus, a school bus, a private charter bus, or an airport shuttle. Our legal team has extensive experience in motor vehicle accident litigation. We conduct a prompt and thorough investigation to establish liability, and our attorneys work closely with clients and their medical providers to gauge the extent of the injury and the scope of damages.

There Is a Time Limit On Public Transit Claims

Contrary to myth, government agencies are not immune to lawsuits. We have brought claims against the New Castle Area Transit Authority and other public bodies. One key difference is the short statute of limitations.

In a typical personal injury case, you have two years to bring a claim. When suing a public transit agency for a bus accident, however, we must file written notice of your claim within six months of the injury. Failing to meet this deadline can bar you from recovering any compensation. Don’t wait any longer to call us!
