Ontario Personal Injury Law Firm
The combination of a large number of unbuckled passengers in an abundance of space can create a recipe for disaster in accidents involving school buses. These accidents can result in a variety of serious and catastrophic injuries for drivers and passengers alike. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident involving a school bus, it is crucial to have an experienced personal injury lawyer representing you.
At Strype Barristers LLP in Toronto, we are experienced trial lawyers, having represented injury victims in more than 250 personal injury trials. We have the skills, resources and knowledge to pursue the compensation you deserve through all levels of courts in Ontario.
School bus accident victims are entitled to government-regulated accident benefits through their insurance company. However, it can be difficult to obtain these benefits in these cases as schools and their insurers will often aggressively fight against personal injury claims, making a seasoned trial lawyer on your behalf a necessity.
School bus accidents often lead to devastating injuries such as head injuries and spinal cord injuries. Working closely with our trusted medical team, we will make sure you or your loved one get the needed treatment for injuries sustained and keep clear documentation of how the injuries require appropriate compensation for short-term and long-term damages.
Whether simply losing control in winter weather or failing to stop at a railroad crossing, there are many causes of school bus accidents. If a negligent bus driver is responsible for the accident that caused your injuries, you may also be able to commence a tort claim against the driver in addition to pursuing accident benefits and disability benefits.
