While most think of buses as large vehicles designed to transport 70+ people, federal agencies define a bus as any motor vehicle designed primarily to transport nine or more persons, including the driver. In the most recent report from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), statistics show that an average of 27,000 people are injured in bus crashes every year. Further, approximately 335 people are killed each year. In Tupelo and Lee County, buses are a popular form of transportation, including those of the Tupelo Public School District’s Transportation Department. Whether you were injured as a passenger on a bus or after a bus hit your car, the Tupelo bus accident attorneys at Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz are ready to serve you today. With over 30 years of experience handling bus accident cases from start to finish, and with a team of over 30 attorneys, our firm has successfully obtained over $1.5 billion in compensation for our clients.
Tupelo bus accidents commonly involve school buses, Greyhound, Megabus, charter buses, and shuttle buses. Many times, bus accidents are chaotic and result in multiple injured parties. As a passenger, you could potentially have a claim against either the bus company or the driver of a car that hit the bus. If you were in a passenger car involved in an accident due to the negligent actions of a bus driver, you could be able to assert a claim against the bus driver and the bus company with the assistance of a personal injury lawyer in Tupelo.
Negligence will typically need to be established in order for you to recover compensation on behalf of yourself or a loved one, such as a child. Negligence can be established by satisfying the following elements:
Special considerations can come into play on a Tupelo bus accident case. For private buses, the bus company may be responsible for the collision, either directly or vicariously. Proving direct liability can involve a separate investigation into actions taken by the carrier such as hiring, maintenance, record keeping, and more. If the bus was owned or operated by a government entity, a victim must be aware of Mississippi law regarding claims against government entities, including the statute of limitation and liability standard. An experienced bus accident attorney in Tupelo will understand how these issues can come into play and be able to properly advise you throughout the legal process.
CONFIDENTIAL SEVEN FIGURE SETTLEMENT: Our firm represented a middle-aged woman who was severely injured in a motor vehicle collision while traveling as a passenger on a bus that rear-ended a commercial truck. As a result of this wreck, our client sustained permanent disabling injuries to her legs, hips and arms. We developed the case by retaining experts such as a life-care planner, an economist and an orthopedic specialist to demonstrate our client’s particular injuries and needs. This case was litigated and eventually taken to mediation where we were able to obtain a confidential seven figure settlement.

After my accident NST was the first people I called . I heard about them and I was glad I chose them. They handled my case like a pro . I was always able to get in touch with them when necessary and they provided me with updates throughout the inter process. They are very friendly and proficient.
Never thought I would need an attorney for a personal injury case, but it happened. I thought, after my accident, that I could handle all the claims, insurance, doctors, hospitals, etc…, but I was quickly overwhelmed. It was then that I was referred to NST by a friend.. Mrs. Childress and the staff at the Tupelo office were amazing! I felt like they were fighting for me and my injury, not just a “payday”. I hope that something like this never happens to me or a loved one again, but I have comfort in the fact that I know who I will turn to if it happens again; without a doubt, Mrs. Childress and the staff at NST Tupelo. Thank you for all that you did for myself and my family.
