Representing Children Injured on School Buses

When you put your children on the school bus in the morning, you have every right to expect that the bus driver is going to take the same precautions you would take by operating the bus safely, driving carefully, and making sure your kids and others don't do anything dangerous.

At The Perecman Firm, P.L.L.C., our New York school bus accident attorneys hold negligent bus drivers, bus companies and school districts accountable for serious injuries to children. Our lead attorney, David Perecman, the father of three wonderful children, has more than 30 years of New York legal experience and understands the importance of good care for children.

Based in Manhattan, we handle cases in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island and Westchester. To schedule a free consultation, don't hesitate to contact us today.

Holding Bus Drivers and Bus Companies Accountable

School bus drivers have a strong legal responsibility to watch out for the safety of their passengers, especially when their passengers are younger children. When they violate their responsibilities and children get hurt, they and their employers can be held liable.

A bus driver must be aware at all times that he or she is driving a bus full of children who may not be old enough to understand the consequences of their actions.

If children are acting out, running around and engaging in horseplay on the bus, they are putting themselves and others in danger. School bus drivers must not only drive carefully; they, or another caretaker on the bus, must also put a stop to any dangerous behavior before it gets out of hand.

If your child has been injured in an accident or any other type of incident involving a school bus, our experienced personal injury lawyers will carefully investigate your case and fight for the full compensation your child deserves for his or her injuries.

Manhattan and Bronx Pedestrian Accident Attorneys

Our firm also represents pedestrians and other drivers who have been seriously injured in accidents with school buses. The lawyers at our firm are experienced at pursuing personal injury and wrongful death claims against school districts and school bus companies.

School buses, like other mass transit vehicles, can cause serious injuries in collisions with pedestrians and smaller vehicles. When bus drivers do not operate their vehicles carefully, our attorneys can hold them accountable. Let us put our experience and passion to work for you.
