Filing a lawsuit may seem like an intimidating process. However, with a Birmingham attorney, the plaintiff will have minimal exposure to the bus accident litigation.
After hiring an attorney and filing the lawsuit, the plaintiff will have to answer the defendant’s written discovery questions. Discovery questions are the defense attorney’s way of getting information about the accident and the plaintiff’s injuries. The plaintiff’s attorney will help walk the plaintiff through the process and answer any questions the plaintiff may have.
After the written discovery is done, the defendant has a right to take a plaintiff’s deposition. The plaintiff has the right for their attorney to be present for the deposition.
Once the discovery phase is over, the plaintiff’s in-depth involvement is substantially over until mediation or trial. The plaintiff may have to testify about the accident, their injuries, medical treatment, and the impact of the injuries on their life.
When it comes to settlement, the plaintiff is not involved in the discussions with the other attorney. All offers the defendant makes must be communicated to the plaintiff by their counsel, and the plaintiff determines whether to accept or reject the offer.
Injuries sustained in bus accidents are not limited to the bus colliding with another vehicle or striking a pedestrian. Bus accidents also involve conditions inside the bus that impact the passengers. Regardless of the cause of the bus accident, a Birmingham attorney could help the plaintiff recover for their injuries.
The law requires drivers to drive in a manner that avoids causing harm to others. When the driver breaches their duty, they are responsible for injuries arising out of their actions.
A driver who breaches can breach this duty in various ways. Some ways a driver operates their vehicle irresponsibly include:
Bus passengers can become injured even when there is no accident. Bus passengers are at risk of falling on the bus or even being struck by luggage. A bus driver and company must keep their passengers safe from harm. This includes fixing any defective or dangerous conditions on the inside of the bus. Some defective conditions include unsafe seating, defective luggage storage, and dangerous flooring conditions that cause slip and falls.
