Bus and Taxi Cab Accidents

New York Bus and Taxi Cab Accident Lawyers

Throughout New York, most people use public transportation to get around New York City's five boroughs. Cabs and buses are convenient and faster than trying to find parking, but with all that traffic, accidents happen. Sometimes the accidents are minor, but when they are not, you want an experienced attorney to represent you and help you recover the compensation you deserve for your injuries.

Taxi cab and bus accidents come in all forms.

• Passengers on the bus or in the cab can sustain injuries when the vehicle is involved in a collision. Passenger injury cases can be complex and require immediate investigation, since the passenger may not initially know who was at fault for the accident: the driver of the vehicle in which they were riding, or the driver of the other vehicle.
• Another situation is when a pedestrian is struck by a bus or cab. Unfortunately, these often result in the wrongful death or catastrophic injury of the individual. Family members may pursue a wrongful death claim against the driver of the bus or cab and/or the company for which the driver worked.

As is often the case in New York City, the City of New York or a City agency owns or operates the bus or transit line. It is important to know YOU HAVE ONLY 90 DAYS TO FILE A CLAIM for personal injuries caused by New York City or other NYC government agency so it is important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after your accident to preserve your rights.
