We are aggressive in our pursuit of determining the cause of the subway accident or bus accident, and holding the negligent party responsible.

As a passenger injured in a bus accident or other mass transit accident, you may be wondering who is responsible for the losses you have suffered. Our firm is committed to helping you understand your rights and taking action on your behalf whenever necessary, and in your best interests.

Mass transit accidents come in all shapes and sizes. We represent clients that have suffered a wide range of injuries in the following types of situations:

• Train accident
• Taxi accident

• Subway accident

Many of these cases many involve the New York City Transit Authority. We understand how to work with this entity to gather information regarding your bus accident or other type of mass transit caused injury. Because the NYCTA is a quasi-governmental entity, there are special regulations that apply to how lawsuits must be filed, and failure to do so may bar you claim. With our years of experience, we understand the procedures and ensure your damage claim is filed timely and properly.
