Why Bus Accident Claims Are So Complex

Bus accident cases often involve multiple parties and layers of responsibility.

Depending on the circumstances, liable parties may include:

A public transit authority
A private bus company
The school district or its transportation contractor
Maintenance providers
Manufacturers of defective parts
Other drivers involved in the collision

Special legal protections for government-operated buses can also complicate these cases. Strict filing deadlines for claims against public entities often apply, and critical evidence must be preserved before it is lost. Without experienced legal representation, a valid claim can be easily delayed, undervalued, or denied altogether.

Why Acting Quickly Matters

Time is one of the most critical factors in a bus accident case. In Texas, the statute of limitations generally gives you two years from the accident date to file a personal injury claim. However, if a government entity is involved, such as a city transit authority or school district, you may have to provide formal notice within just a few months.

Acting quickly also helps preserve critical evidence, such as accident scene photos, surveillance footage, maintenance records, and witness statements, before they are lost or altered. The sooner our team can investigate, the stronger your case will be.

Delaying action could mean missing key deadlines, losing valuable evidence, and jeopardizing your right to full compensation.

Compensation in a Bus Accident Claim

Every bus accident is different, but many victims face similar financial, physical, and emotional losses.

If your claim is successful, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Medical expenses – Including emergency care, hospital stays, surgeries, rehabilitation, and future medical needs
Lost wages – Income you have already lost due to your injuries, as well as reduced earning capacity if you cannot return to your previous job
Pain and suffering – Physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life caused by the accident
Property damage – Repair or replacement costs for your vehicle or other personal property

At Duke Seth PLLC, we take the time to understand the full scope of your immediate and long-term losses so we can pursue the maximum recovery available under Texas law.
