Bus Accident Compensation Claims

As a passenger on a bus it is possible that you may have suffered a personal injury as a result of an accident. If this has been through no fault of your own, then you could be entitled to claim compensation for any injury you may have suffered as a result of a bus accident, no matter how this was sustained.

Bus operators in the UK have a duty of care to all their passengers to ensure their safety. If they fail in this then you may have a valid claim. If you have suffered a personal injury as a result of a bus accident then contact the team here at Alkers Solicitors today and one of our specialist accident solicitors will be happy to advise you regarding the validity of your claim.

For more information about making a bus accident compensation claim, contact us on freephone 0800 00 55 44, or via the enquiry form.

The team at Alkers specialise in claims for all manner of road traffic accidents, including bus accident compensation claims. For instance, if your bus driver pulls away from the bus stop too quickly and you fall, sustaining injuries which require hospital care or time off work, Alkers can make a bus accident compensation claim against the bus operator on your behalf. You could simply be walking down the stairs or waiting to alight when the bus driver has to slam on his brakes, or the bus you are travelling in has an accident with another vehicle.

‘No Win, No Fee’ Bus Injury Compensation Claims

We operate on a strictly ‘no win, no fee’ basis, meaning our clients are able to keep 100% of the compensation awarded by the court. Our aim is to help our clients get the compensation they deserve following bus accidents, helping them to cover medical fees and household bills during their recovery period.

In our experience, many bus accident injuries to passengers happen as a result of a third party, rather than the bus driver, being at fault. If the bus you are travelling on is involved in a road traffic accident or you are thrown from your seat or fall because another vehicle has collided with the bus you are on, we will then make a bus accident compensation claim against the third party involved.

Even if the third party drives away from the scene of the bus accident without leaving details or if the third party has no insurance, Alkers will pursue a compensation claim for you through the Motor Insurers’ Bureau.

Start A Bus Accident Claim

Our thoroughly experienced road traffic accident lawyers will be available for information, advice and reassurance throughout the course of your claim. Here at Alkers we understand the importance of providing excellent customer service during what can be a traumatic time.
Contact a specialist bus accident compensation solicitor today on freephone 0800 00 55 44 or via the enquiry form, and kick-start your ‘no win, no fee’ injury claim today.
