Our Bus Accident Lawyers Are Changing the Way Bus Companies Do Business
Bus companies talk about “safety” in their advertising. In fact, Greyhound Bus Company advertises “Safety First.” Jon Ostroff and his team of bus safety lawyers have proven that what bus companies really believe is “profit over safety,” because safety costs money. These large companies will spend big money to fight people injured on their buses rather than protecting their passengers. Our team of attorneys is prepared and able to take on these companies.

Tom
A Personal Injury Client
I left another lawyer in Pittsburgh because he said he could not help me, because I had limited tort insurance. I found Mr. Ostroff on line. He called me in 10 minutes, sent a lawyer to my home in two days and settled my case for $200,000 in less than one year.

Types of Injuries After a Bus Accident
Bus accident victims are often more seriously injured than car crash victims. Because of a bus’s immense size and lack of seat belts, passengers may be killed or suffer permanent injuries.
Once our attorneys are hired, we promptly file a lawsuit and dig out the facts. Jon attacks hard and keeps the bus company on the defense. Our firm’s recoveries on behalf of clients prove that our aggressive approach works.
Physical Injuries
Broken bones, spinal damage, and severe cuts could be compounded by disfigurement, traumatic brain injury, and more.
Emotional Injuries
Passengers involved in a bus crash might suffer from emotional injuries like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Economic Losses
Sustaining catastrophic injuries means suddenly having medical bills and other expenses piling up -- on top of lost wages at work.
Lifestyle Losses
Physical and emotional injuries might negatively impact a victim's relationships and inhibit life's pleasures and enjoyment.
