File legal claims within the appropriate deadlines
Gather police reports
Secure photographs and video footage from the scene
Obtain witness statements

Handling Insurance Claims

Insurance representatives will attempt to drive down the value of your claim, so you accept less money than you are entitled to. But as New York’s top bus accident attorneys, we do not stop until all financial losses are recovered.

Our experienced legal professionals will reach out to the insurance company (or multiple companies, depending on the case) to discuss your claim. We will provide necessary documents to verify injuries, medical expenses, and the liable party or parties’ negligence.

Representing You During Trial

Your attorney will negotiate your claim with the insurance company and all liable parties. Throughout the negotiation, our team will never settle for less than you are entitled to.

If the responsible parties are unwilling to cooperate or pay fair compensation, we will take your case to trial. Our lawyers prepare all necessary documents for the case, represent you in front of a jury, and fight for proper compensation to recover your damages.
