What Caused the Bus Accident?

After a bus accident, our firm takes the necessary steps to investigate the accident's cause. We work to determine the liable party and if negligence contributed to or caused the accident:

  • Negligent bus drivers — Was the driver licensed and properly trained to operate the bus? Was the driver speeding or recklessly driving?
  • Negligent bus companies — Was the bus properly maintained? Were there any unresolved mechanical issues?
  • Dangerous road conditions — Did dangerous road conditions contribute to or cause the accident?

Once we determine the cause of the accident, we can take legal action and seek compensation on behalf of the injured parties. Although Hawaii is a "no-fault" state in regard to automobile accidents, you may still be eligible for significant compensation to cover a wide range of expenses. Discuss your options with a personal injury lawyer.

Take prompt legal action

If you have been injured in a public transportation accident in Hawaii, it is important to act quickly and file your claim within the accepted time frame. Although there are some exceptions, most bus accident or personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the accident. Talk to an attorney to find out the specific time frame for your injury case.
