How Our Kissimmee Bus Accident Lawyers Navigate Complex Bus Accident Claims
We know how to handle a bus accident case. We develop strong support for our client’s claims and demand the compensation they deserve based on their injuries and damages. We will fight for the justice you deserve.
Understanding the Process for Bus Accident Cases
Bus accident cases differ from car accidents in several ways. First, the injuries are often more serious. Buses are much larger and heavier than passenger vehicles. In addition, most traffic accident cases hold an individual liable for causing the crash. In a bus accident, a professional driver is often liable. This means the legal doctrine of respondeat superior is in effect, and their employer is likely vicariously liable.
Additionally, most car accidents do not involve government agencies, making it unnecessary to navigate the complex process required to hold them accountable. However, bus accidents could involve government-owned or operated buses. This alters the process you must navigate to recover compensation.
In Kissimmee, government agencies operate or support numerous transportation options. This includes:
- LYNX, operated by the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority in Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties
- The Osceola County School District
When a bus involved in the accident is used for public transportation or operated by a public school district, government liability may apply. When it is a commercial bus operated by a company, that bus company is generally vicariously liable for the damages that occurred. We file a case against the company instead of the individual bus driver, seeking relief based on its corporate liability policy.

Types of Compensation Bus Accident Victims Can Pursue
Bus accident victims could suffer a wide range of injuries depending on the circumstances of their crash. Some heal fully in a few weeks and return to their usual activities, while others live with the effects of catastrophic injuries for the rest of their lives. Our Kissimmee bus accident attorneys take this and other details into consideration when seeking a fair settlement.
We look at the expenses and losses you incurred and seek enough money to cover your damages to date and future care and support costs, if necessary. We work with medical experts, economists, and others to help us understand how your severe injuries could affect your future.
The categories of recoverable damages in a Kissimmee bus accident case include:
Economic Damages
We pursue compensation for the financial expenses and losses you experienced and your future costs. This includes almost any expenses related to your accident or injuries. Examples include current and future medical care, lost income, vehicle or property repair or replacement, and other documented expenses.
Non-Economic Damages
Non-economic damages are the intangible losses victims experience because of their injuries. These damages encompass various emotional, mental, and psychological losses. Examples are physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, scarring and disfigurement, reduced quality of life, and mental anguish.
