SEPTA Injury Claims

Every year in Pennsylvania, about 500 commercial bus accidents occur, along with nearly 400 school bus accidents. All told, at least 1,000 bus accidents occur in Pennsylvania in the average year – about three a day. Thankfully, nine out of ten passengers suffer no injury from these accidents. That still leaves hundreds of injured bus accident victims a year and, tragically, several deaths.

 

If you are one of the ten percent of bus accident victims who suffered injury, you could have an uphill battle facing you as soon as you seek compensation for your losses. Filing a claim against the local government, for example, involves special considerations – lots of red tapes, restrictions on what types of claims are eligible for compensation, and limitations on the number of damages you are entitled to. To help navigate this complicated process you need an experienced Philadelphia bus accident attorney that is knowledgeable about SEPTA injury claims.

Bus Accidents: How to Protect Your Rights to Compensation

Your choice of Philadelphia bus accident attorney is likely to be the most important decision you make in your case. Remembering this principle is never more important than when you are attempting to squeeze compensation out of a stingy, taxpayer-funded government bureau. With 25+ years of personal injury experience under my belt, I know how these people think, and I know how to handle their evasive stonewalling.

 

The second most important factor in winning your case is the speed with which you take action. When you file against the government, filing deadlines are considerably shorter. If you were in a multi-victim accident, it becomes important to know that SEPTA, for example, is limited to $1 million in aggregate compensation per accident. If you file your claim too late, you could end up with little or nothing.

Representing Injured Victims is 100 Percent of My Practice

Some personal injury law firms treat their practices like a buffet – they dabble in a large variety of different fields of law, from personal injury to corporate law to litigating tax disputes, for example. I am not a “jack of all trades” myself. I specialize in only one field of law – helping victims of personal injury recover the compensation they deserve for the suffering they endure.
