Bus Accidents

Injured in a bus accident? You deserve answers, accountability, and full compensation.

Bus accidents can result in devastating injuries—whether you’re a passenger, pedestrian, or occupant of another vehicle. The size and weight of a bus can cause catastrophic damage, and the legal aftermath often involves government entities, school districts, or private transportation companies, making these cases more complex than standard auto accidents.

At Mahdavi Law Firm, we help victims of bus accidents pursue justice and financial recovery. Whether the accident involved a school bus, city transit, private charter, or intercity bus service like Greyhound or Megabus, we’re prepared to take on the fight for you.

Who Can Be Held Liable in a Bus Accident?

Bus accident claims often involve multiple parties, each with its own insurance coverage, legal defenses, and liability issues. Depending on the situation, the following parties may be responsible:

  • Bus driver (negligence, distraction, fatigue, intoxication)
  • Bus company (failure to train, supervise, or maintain vehicles)
  • School district or public transit agency
  • Charter companies or tour bus operators
  • Maintenance contractors or parts manufacturers
  • Another driver or third party who caused the crash

Our legal team investigates every angle to identify who is at fault—and we don’t back down, even when powerful government agencies or corporate insurers are involved.

Types of Bus Accident Cases We Handle

We represent individuals and families in a wide range of bus-related incidents, including:

  • School bus accidents involving children
  • City and regional public transportation crashes
  • Private shuttle, casino, or charter bus accidents
  • Long-distance intercity bus collisions (Greyhound, Megabus, etc.)
  • Pedestrians or cyclists hit by buses
  • Tour bus and motorcoach crashes
  • Rollover, rear-end, or intersection accidents involving buses

Whether you were riding the bus, walking nearby, or driving another vehicle, Mahdavi Law Firm is ready to help.

Common Injuries in Bus Accidents

Buses often lack seatbelts and other standard safety features, and passengers are frequently thrown from their seats during a crash. As a result, injuries in bus accidents can be severe, including:

  • Head injuries and traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones and orthopedic trauma
  • Internal bleeding or organ damage
  • Severe lacerations or crush injuries
  • Emotional trauma, PTSD, and anxiety
  • Wrongful death in fatal collisions

We work with medical professionals and financial experts to assess the full impact of your injuries—both now and in the future.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

You may be entitled to recover compensation for:

  • Emergency medical treatment and ongoing care
  • Lost wages and reduced future earnings
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Rehabilitation and therapy
  • Property damage (if you were in another vehicle)
  • Wrongful death expenses (funeral costs, loss of support)

If a government agency is involved (such as a school district or public transit system), specific notice deadlines and legal procedures may apply. That’s why it’s critical to act quickly.

Why Choose Mahdavi Law Firm?

Bus accident cases require strategic experience, strong investigation, and aggressive negotiation. At Mahdavi Law Firm, we bring all three. We know how to deal with government claims, private transportation companies, and reluctant insurance carriers.

Most importantly, we treat every client with care and respect—because to us, you’re not just a case, you’re a person with a future worth fighting for.

And with no upfront fees and a no-win, no-fee policy, you risk nothing by reaching out.
