Bus Driver Accidents: Your Legal Allies In Recovery
As a bus driver, you’ve dedicated countless hours to the safe transportation of our community’s residents and children. You provide a service that’s the backbone of Omaha’s daily life. But when an accident or injury strikes, leaving you struggling and unsure about the future, you deserve support from a legal team that genuinely cares.
At Dowd & Corrigan, LLC, we will fight for the compensation you need during this challenging time. As workers’ compensation attorneys with more than 70 years of combined experience, we’ve stood by thousands of community servants like you throughout Nebraska and Iowa. You’ve been there for our community; now let us be there for you.
The Workers’ Compensation Process For Bus Drivers
The workers’ comp systems in both Iowa and Nebraska give injured workers a financial lifeline while they’re unable to earn a living due to an on-the-job accident or injury. However, the process doesn’t always go smoothly. It’s far too common to run into roadblocks with getting benefits.
We can help you navigate the ins and outs of the entire process, from filing your claim to dealing with insurance adjusters and pursuing appeals of unfavorable decisions. We’re thorough in our preparation and diligent in our pursuit of a positive result.
Common Injuries Among Bus Drivers
Bus drivers can sustain a range of injuries on the job. Broken bones, lacerations, head injuries and other serious conditions not only affect your health but also your ability to work. These injuries can be life-changing, and you deserve adequate financial support to sustain and rebuild your life after a tragic accident.
Third-Party Injury Claims: Seeking Justice Beyond Workers’ Comp
Sometimes, negligence on the road involving other drivers can lead to bus driver accidents. A third-party personal injury claim against the negligent driver can give you another source of compensation.
We have a proven track record of success in identifying and holding those at fault accountable in these types of personal injury claims. Let us help you secure the added compensation you need to recover fully.
