Columbus Bus Accident Lawyer

A collision between your car and a bus typically results in the vehicle driver sustaining more serious injuries and property damage than the bus operator. Whether your accident involved a city, party, coach, or school bus, our Columbus bus accident lawyer will help you pursue financial damages by identifying the at-fault party and their insurance company.

At Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, we will compile and submit evidence that supports your right to compensation. We help you recover your medical bills, vehicle damage, pain and suffering, and more. We will assess the value of your case and negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf. Our goal is to settle your case out of court, but we will not hesitate to go to court if necessary.

Our Bus Accident Attorneys Build Strong Cases for Our Columbus Clients

Proving the cause of your bus accident and building a solid case for financial compensation is a huge undertaking. It can be challenging to put in the hard work of building a claim while recovering from the accident.

When you trust our law firm to represent you, your case becomes a priority for every member of our client-focused team. We will handle the big and small details for you. Our client-focused team will:

• Locate and interview witnesses while their memories are fresh
• Canvass the accident scene for available photos and video footage
• Conduct a comprehensive investigation into the accident’s cause
• Document and assess the known and ongoing value of your case
• Handle all case-related communication and correspondence for you
• Obtain, complete, and submit all insurance and court paperwork

We will also handle the back-and-forth communication of the negotiation process. Our goal is to obtain the best possible outcome for you and to handle all the details of your case so you can concentrate on your physical and emotional recovery. If your bus accident case has to go to court, we will also represent you there.

Let Us Handle Evidence Collection and Submission

Most personal injury cases are settled without the time and expense of a trial when the collection of evidence points to the at-fault party’s negligence. Our legal team’s familiarity with bus accident cases means we understand the value of the evidence we collect for you.

Your evidence file will contain:

• Medical records and bills
• Written prognosis
• Employment and salary records
• Bus accident report
• Rehab and therapy records
• Accident scene photos
• Photos of your injuries
• Witness statements

The evidence we collect for you will be used to steer the settlement process and to ensure the at-fault party is held responsible for compensating you. We also make sure you are not burdened by the post-accident costs the at-fault party should cover.

We Start Building Your Bus Accident Case Immediately

When our bus accident attorney representing clients in Columbus takes on your case, we make sure to comply with North Carolina’s statute of limitations. If you or someone you love was injured in the accident, you generally have up to three years to file your bus accident lawsuit, according to G.S. § 1-52. The clock starts running on the date the accident occurred.

If a loved one was fatally injured in the accident, you generally have up to two years to file your wrongful death lawsuit, according to G.S. § 1-53. However, if the statute of limitations in either type of case expires, you could inadvertently forfeit your right to recover damages.

If the bus accident involves a municipal, city, or state vehicle, we also make sure the proper notifications are made to the appropriate government agency. At Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, we ensure compliance with all filing and notification deadlines. We will not allow your right to seek compensation in or out of court to be jeopardized.
