Causes of Bus Crashes

Our attorneys file lawsuits for passengers who are injured in any type of bus accident case, including those where a bus driver was negligent. Injuries may occur when a bus driver:

Cases may also be filed if a bus defect, such as damaged security handles or brakes, cause a crash. The parties who can file for compensation are not just injured passengers, but also any motorist, pedestrian, or bicyclist who might have been hurt after a crash. Whatever the nature of the referral, our attorneys are ready to take on the case.

We have also successfully sued bus drivers and companies for causing crashes with other motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, and motorcyclists.

Paying Referral Fees for Michigan Bus Accident Cases

Each one of our bus accident cases are taken on a one-third contingency fee basis. Because of Michigan state law, we have to deduct case expenses from the full settlement amount before calculating our fee.

For most bus crash cases, we pay the referring attorney a one-third referral fee. As soon as we retain the client for representation, we guarantee this fee in writing. We also confirm the referral source in our case management software.

By referring a case to us, your client will receive exceptional care. The Michigan referral fee law does not require you or your firm to provide any co-counsel or assistance during the client’s case. This means case referrals to Buckfire Law Firm carry no hidden monetary costs or extra time. These factors make referral cases an easy and rewarding decision for everyone involved.
