Bus accidents happen fast and take accident victims by surprise. Like other types of auto accidents, bus crashes can result in serious and potentially fatal injuries. Bus passengers often have no way of bracing themselves for an accident and might be unaware a crash is about to occur until seconds beforehand. If you were injured or a loved one was injured or killed in a bus crash, you deserve legal representation from an aggressive San Diego bus accident attorney who knows how to maximize compensation.
Whether injured while riding the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) from Ocean Beach to Downtown, injured at a bus stop waiting for the 848 toward Lakeside, or involved in an accident while a passenger on an intercity bus, attorney Laba is ready to help. He’s a San Diego bus accident attorney who’s familiar with the most common causes of bus accidents across San Diego County.
