Boston Bus Accident Attorneys
If you have suffered an injury as a result of an accident caused by mass transit vehicles, it is important to contact a lawyer as soon as possible. In many situations, there is a strict statute of limitations and a stringent process that must be followed. An experienced attorney can ensure you do not miss deadlines and receive the proper compensation.
In Boston, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) oversees virtually all public transportation. The MBTA is an independent agency but is treated as a municipality. After an accident, an individual may not be able to file a lawsuit for six months after demand for settlement is made. Because of this length of time, many people run afoul of the statute of limitations. The experienced MBTA accident attorneys at Alford & Bertrand, LLC, will work diligently to ensure you follow the appropriate timelines and file the necessary paperwork to recover monetary compensation for your injuries.
As a tourist haven with a large commuter population, Boston's streets are filled with pedestrians and mass transit vehicles. Individuals can be hurt as pedestrians or while riding public transportation such as:
- Bus lines
- Taxicabs
- Trolly/streetcars such as the Green Line
- Rapid transit cars such as the Red Line, Orange Line and Blue Line
Every accident is unique, and it often takes a skilled attorney to understand all of the factors involved. Trust us to research your accident to fully understand who was liable and what caused the situation.
