Bus Accident Attorney in Miami

Each day across Florida, residents ride the bus to work, school, and everywhere in between. For some people, buses are their only means of transportation. From public transit and school buses to tour and charter buses, Miami’s roadways are filled with these giant metal machines, making accidents inevitable.

According to the US Department of Transportation, there are approximately 183 bus accidents across the country daily. Often, these accidents result in severe injuries, not only for bus passengers but also for the motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians with whom they share the road.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a bus accident, a Miami bus accident lawyer from the Morgan & Morgan team can advocate for your rights and help you obtain compensation for your injuries.
