The Parties Involved in a Bus Accident Claim
There are four general parties involved in a bus accident claim: the plaintiff, the liable party, the liable party’s insurance company, and Orlando bus accident lawyers.
You would be the liable party in the bus accident claim if you were hurt by someone else’s carelessness or negligence in a bus accident. You are entitled to compensation for your damages as the plaintiff. You were going to be seeking justice for your damages.
The liable party is the person or entity that is responsible for your injuries and damages. It could be the bus driver who is liable. It could be the bus company who is liable. Through investigation, we will figure out who the liable party is and hold them accountable for the damages that they caused you.
The liable party is going to be represented by their insurance company. The insurance company is going to try to save themselves money by reducing what they owe you or throwing out your case altogether. Regardless, they are going to be held accountable for the damages and injuries that their insured has caused you.
One of our Orlando bus accident lawyers can represent you. They will help you seek justice for your injuries and damages. They are going to be looking at the insurance company and holding them accountable so that you get the justice that you deserve.
