Florida School Bus Accident Injury Lawyer & Attorney
Was Your Child a Victim of a School Bus Accident Injury in Florida ?
School
bus accidents are the most tragic of all motor vehicle
accidents due to the inherent involvement of young children. As
a result, substantial damages are often at issue in cases of
this type, and vigorous representation is required to bring all
responsible parties to justice.
Because we entrust them
with our children's safety and lives, school bus drivers must
abide by all transportation laws, including laws that prohibit
speeding and consuming alcohol before or while driving. In
addition, the companies that maintain public transportation
vehicles like buses are liable for the safety of their vehicles.
If you or your child has been injured in a school bus accident,
we can help.
A school bus-related crash is a crash which
involves, either directly or indirectly, a school bus-type
vehicle, or a vehicle functioning as a school bus, transporting
children to or from school or school-related activities.
FloridaWe entrust school bus drivers with our children's safety and
their lives. The drivers must abide
by all transportation laws, including laws that prohibit
speeding and consuming alcohol before or while driving. In
addition, drivers of school buses must abide by a higher duty of
care for schoolchildren, who are seen to have a special status
in the eyes of the law and deserve more than ordinary
protection.
School bus accidents can be caused by such contributing
factors as driver negligence, dangerous roadways, weather
conditions, defective products and improper maintenance, among
others. These accidents may lead to death or serious physical
injury, including:
A school bus accident can impact the lives of the victim and his
or her family. Depending on the severity of the accident, the
victim may need to undergo surgery or visit numerous
specialists. Treatment for school bus-related injuries may be
very expensive and cause financial stress on the family. If you
retain a skilled bus accident injury lawyer you may be able to
recover monetary compensation for your injuries and other
accident-related costs.
The school bus accident attorneys of Hudgins Law Firm will
perform a thorough investigation of the factors contributing to
the school bus accident to better understand who should be held
liable. You may be able to file a claim against the bus company
to recover for your damages. If you were a passenger on a bus
that was involved in an accident, the bus company, whether
public or private, owes you the "utmost duty of care" associated
with being a common carrier. This "duty of utmost care" is
higher than the negligence duty owed by the bus company to
drivers of other vehicles and pedestrians. |
