Tour Bus Accident Attorney
Personal Injury Lawyer in Long Beach, CA
Tour bus accidents can occur when the passenger's safety is put in jeopardy by negligent behavior on the part of those responsible for maintaining or driving a tour bus. A tour bus crash can also be caused by the negligent driving of another motorist on the road. If you or a loved one was hurt in a tour bus accident, you need someone to pursue the driver and bus company for damages. Our Long Beach personal injury lawyers can do just that and make sure your rights to compensation are preserved.
Pursuing Compensation in Bus Accident Cases
When a tour bus accident occurs and passengers are injured, the bus company will do all it can to avoid paying injured parties by downplaying their injuries as much as possible. At McGee Lerer Ogrin, we focus on helping you get the medical treatment you need and documenting all of your bills and losses so that we can get you the financial compensation to which you are entitled.
A tour bus is considered a "common carrier" under California law, which means that the bus driver and bus company are legally required to use the highest degree of care to ensure passengers' safety and well-being.
More than one entity may be held liable to pay damages for your injuries including:
- The bus company
- Bus maintenance company
- Bus operator
- Bus driver
- Bus and/or parts manufacturer
- Another negligent driver on the road
- Local and state governments
