Public Transportation

Public Transportation and Injury Law

If you have been injured through another's negligence, you have a legal right to obtain financial compensation for damages from those who caused your injury. Exercising those rights can become complicated when the party that injured you is a city bus, a train or another form of public transportation.

A Record of Effective Representation

Pursing compensation from public transportation entities involves a thorough knowledge of the complex rules and regulations governing the transportation provider. The attorneys of Greene Broillet & Wheeler, LLP, have the experience and knowledge required to maximize results in these complex claims. To learn more, please review the following pages:

  • About Common Carriers: Trains, taxis, planes, city buses, shuttles and other common carriers must provide the utmost care for their passengers' safety.
  • Dealing With the Government: Delay may result in loss of your right to pursue compensation for damages from a governmental entity.
  • MTA Buses: We have won millions of dollars for victims of MTA bus accidents.
  • Other Transit Systems: Including Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus, Long Beach Transit, the Ocean Express Trolley, Culver City Bus, BART and more
  • Airporters/Shuttle Buses: Driver error is frequently a factor in these accidents, but top-heavy design of shuttle buses puts them at risk of rollover accidents.
  • School Bus Accidents: Accidents that injure and kill school children are tragic and, sadly, often caused by negligence.
  • Metro Subway and Railroad Accidents: Because of our extensive experience in transportation litigation, our law firm was selected to be a member of the plaintiffs' steering committee for the Chatsworth train wreck case.
  • Tourist/Visitor Injuries: If you were injured while visiting Southern California, it is important to select a lawyer with a record of success representing injured clients in California courts.
