Damages You Could Recover After a Crash in Glen Cove

For many families, the primary concern after a collision is financial:

• How will you pay medical bills, especially if you suffered severe injuries that require long-term care?
• How will you cover repair bills to get your car fixed?
• What will your family live on if you have lost wages or earning capacity because of your injuries?

We understand your concern and will ensure we ask for enough compensation to cover all of your financial losses. Our legal team also recognizes the importance of your physical injuries. Pain and suffering, disabilities, and impaired quality of life do not come with an official price tag, but they have at least as much of an impact on your life as your monetary losses do. Our lawyers will account for the full extent of your injuries when pursuing your claim. An appropriate settlement will include both economic and non-economic damages.

Will the Insurance Company Offer You an Appropriate Bus Accident Settlement?

Perhaps, but usually not right away. Initial offers might look appealing, but unless your lawyer reviews it carefully, there is no guarantee that the offer will accurately reflect your losses. Accepting an inadequate settlement could mean you run out of money while you still have bills to pay—and you would have signed away your right to ask for more. With the support of our accident injury lawyers, you will be confident that your settlement or verdict includes everything you need, both now and in the future.

How to File a Claim or Lawsuit After a Bus Crash

When you file a claim, your personal injury attorney presents the liable party with all of the evidence we have gathered in your case and tries to arrive at an appropriate settlement agreement. Filing a lawsuit applies additional pressure to the insurance company: if they do not offer a just settlement, we will take your case to trial. Claims and lawsuits are different legal actions, but they are typically done with the same goal in mind: to hold negligent parties accountable by compelling them to reimburse accident victims for their losses. We will work with you to decide if filing a claim, a lawsuit, or both is the most appropriate course of action in your case. We will prepare and submit all paperwork before New York’s statute of limitations expires, protecting your right to file a lawsuit. (It is also very important to note that a shorter statute of limitations may apply to your situation, depending upon the circumstances of your case. Speaking with a lawyer can help clarify which deadlines apply and what legal options may be available.)

What Kinds of Cases Do Our Glen Cove Bus Injury Lawyers Accept?

Our legal team is qualified to handle any type of bus accident case, from multi-vehicle collisions and rollover accidents to injuries that occur while boarding or exiting the bus. We also take into account what kind of bus was involved in the incident. We handle cases involving:

• School buses
• MTA buses
• Charter buses

Finally, we have to consider the liable party’s identity. Cases like these often involve a legal concept known as vicarious liability. In short, if a bus driver was negligent, their employer (rather than the driver themselves) is probably liable for your damages. On the other hand, if a different vehicle caused the crash, we will have to track it down and figure out how to hold the liable party accountable. Friedman & Simon, L.L.P., investigates every case thoroughly to ensure your rights are protected and compensation is recovered efficiently.
