Private bus services are convenient and generally inexpensive or even free. However, that inexpensive or free service can quickly become very expensive indeed if you are in a collision involving a shuttle or private bus in North Miami or another community. Unfortunately, in these cases even though you're covered by insurance, you may have a hard time recovering insurance money for your injuries.
If you have been injured in a shuttle bus or private bus accident, there is no cookie-cutter legal solution. Your case may be very different from another similar case based on the specifics of your situation. Even the passenger sitting next to you in an airport shuttle may have a different claim depending on their specific situation. It's why our attorneys at Flaxman Law Group treat each case individually and approach every claim with a fresh mind. We listen keenly to the individual stories our plaintiffs have and offer personalized and thorough legal assessment of each individual case.

Should You Pursue A Legal Case In A Private Bus Or Shuttle Collision In North Miami?If you have been injured in a shuttle bus or other private bus collision, you may be focused on immediate loss of property, injuries, and the trauma and anxiety that a serious collision can cause. However, you also need to be thinking ahead. How will you pay for the medical costs of your injuries? If your injuries are permanent or severe, how would you replace lost income if you need to take time away from work or if you miss your vacation because you are in the hospital? If your luggage was damaged in the accident, how will you replace your property? If you need to miss your flight back home because of your injuries, how will you pay for that?
Unfortunately, even if you are offered a settlement by the shuttle company or you have travel insurance or car insurance that promises to pay for part of your costs, you need to consider your total and long-term costs. Incidental costs and long-term costs may end up costing you more than you think and even a simple injury such as a fractured bone may end up costing you tens of thousands of dollars.
If you have suffered a permanent injury such as and amputation, spinal cord injury, or other injury you may face costs in excess of one million dollars over the lifetime of your injury in lost productivity at work as well as medical costs. Consult with a personal injury attorney immediately following your collision. He or she can help you understand the likely total cost of injuries similar to yours and can help you understand what legal options you have. If you have received insurance or settlement offers, an attorney can review them and can negotiate for fair settlement for you.
