Bus Accident Attorney in Dallas-Fort Worth

Bus accidents can result in serious injuries to passengers, pedestrians, cyclists, and occupants of other vehicles. Whether involving public transit, school buses, charter buses, or private shuttles, these accidents present unique legal challenges. If you or a loved one has been injured in a bus accident in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, The Kashar Law Firm, P.C. can help you navigate these complexities and pursue the compensation you deserve.

The Unique Nature of Bus Accident Cases in Texas

Bus accident claims differ significantly from standard vehicle accident cases in several important ways:

Bus accident liability often extends beyond the driver to include bus companies, transit authorities, municipal governments, school districts, tour operators, manufacturers, maintenance contractors, and other negligent drivers.

When accidents involve public transit or school buses, special rules may apply under the Texas Tort Claims Act, including shorter filing deadlines, damage caps, and specific procedural requirements that must be strictly followed.

Common Causes of Bus Accidents in DFW

Understanding what caused your bus accident is essential for establishing liability. Accidents typically stem from driver-related factors (fatigue, inadequate training, distraction, impairment), company-related negligence (poor hiring practices, inadequate maintenance, unrealistic schedules), or vehicle and road factors (defective parts, poor road design, mechanical failures).

Common Bus Accident Injuries

Due to the size and weight of buses, along with limited safety features for passengers, bus accidents often cause serious injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, fractures, internal injuries, and severe lacerations. For non-passengers, catastrophic injuries to pedestrians, cyclists, or occupants of smaller vehicles are common.

These injuries typically require emergency treatment, hospitalization, rehabilitation, and ongoing care. A bus accident attorney will work with medical experts to assess your current and future needs to ensure compensation covers all necessary care.
