Determining The Cause Of Your 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? Was the driver speeding or driving recklessly?
- Negligent bus companies — Was the bus properly maintained? Were mechanical problems repaired? Was the driver’s traffic record checked and monitored?
- Dangerous road conditions — Did design defects or 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 damages and expenses. Discuss your options with a personal injury lawyer.
