    Has Your Child Been Injured in a School Bus Accident?

    School buses are necessary transportation for so many, yet the accidents they cause result in emergency room visits by 17,000 children each year in the United States. Between 2008 and 2017, there have been 1,241 people killed in school-transportation-related crashes – an average of 124 fatalities per year. 21% of these fatalities were of school-age children (18 and younger). While school buses travel at low speeds, their large size poses a threat to other cars that share the road … and to their precious passengers. Seat belts are not required in school buses in either Missouri or Kansas.

    Sometimes the driver of the school bus is at fault for an accident. Sometimes the driver of another vehicle is responsible. I will gather and investigate the evidence to determine who is liable for your child’s injuries.

    School bus accidents can be caused by factors such as:

    • Driver negligence
    • Dangerous roadways
    • Weather conditions
    • Defective products
    • Improper maintenance

    These accidents may lead to death or serious physical injury:

    • Head injuries
    • Burn injuries
    • Brain and spinal cord injuries
    • Fractured bones
    • Cuts and bruising
    • Amputations
    • Internal injuries

    Can Medical Evidence Prove a Whiplash Injury After a Car Accident?

    Whiplash is a common injury sustained in car accidents, but it is also one of the most difficult to prove in a personal injury claim because it frequently doesn’t present immediate symptoms.

    With a contingent-fee agreement, your attorney does not charge a direct, hourly rate or require a set retainer fee. Instead, the attorney receives a percentage of the settlement or verdict as payment. This arrangement allows many injured persons to bring lawsuits that they would otherwise be unable to afford.

    It’s a good question. However, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question when to file a personal injury lawsuit. To put it one way, anytime you have suffered injuries due to someone else’s negligence and you are at risk of not receiving adequate compensation, it is likely you will need to sue in order to be properly compensated.
