We Can Handle Your Miami Beach, FL, Bus Accident
We handle all types of Miami Beach bus accidents. We can evaluate your case and build a solid case if you suffered injuries:
- While riding a bus
- When a bus collided with your vehicle
- When a bus hit you while on foot or riding a bike
We will identify the liable party and take legal action to hold them accountable. This is often the most complex part of bus accident cases because special laws apply to government agencies, such as transit companies that run public transit systems and school buses.
Public Transit Accidents
If your accident involved a Metrobus, Miami-Dade County may be liable. To hold a government agency responsible, we may need to follow special rules. We know how this process works and can navigate the tight deadlines for you.
School Bus Accidents
If you or your child sustained injuries in an accident involving one of the school buses belonging to Miami-Dade County Public Schools, the school district may be liable.
Privately Owned Buses
If your accident involved a privately owned bus, we will investigate the crash to identify who owns and/or operates the bus. The owners and operators may be vicariously liable for your injuries under Florida law.

You will receive regular status updates, and our team is always available to answer your questions and address your concerns.
