School Bus Accidents

School bus accidents often occur when impatient drivers attempt to pass a bus while it is either unloading or loading students, slowing down to turn, or stopped at a train crossing. Alternatively, bus drivers themselves sometimes cause accidents by driving too fast in snowy or rainy weather, making wide turns, or improperly merging into traffic. At the law office of Clay, Kline & Young, LLC, our attorneys work with investigators and accident re-constructionists in determining the cause of an accident involving a school bus. We interview eyewitnesses, especially when children are struck while getting on or off of a bus, taking photographs, measuring skid marks and collecting other needed evidence. Our office determines the cause of a school bus accident and holds those responsible financially accountable for the injuries suffered by our clients.

The Cost of Serious Bus Accident Injuries

Since children are often involved in school bus accidents, it's important to understand the long-term effects of head and neck injuries. That's why our attorneys consult economists and life care planners in determining the short- and long-term costs associated with a school bus accident. Especially where paraplegia, quadriplegia or brain damage occurs, families need assurance the money required for taking care of their child will be there.
