Types of Bus Accidents We Handle
At Rodriguez Law Firm, we represent victims who have suffered injuries following a bus accident that wasn’t your fault.
Our attorneys have decades of combined experience investigating complex accident scenes, working with experts, and holding negligent drivers accountable across Virginia, Maryland, Washington D.C., and Texas.
We regularly handle cases involving:
- School Bus: Accidents with school buses can be tragic, affecting children, drivers, and pedestrians.
- Connector Bus: Connecting communities, these buses may crash due to overcrowding or driver error.
- Private Bus: Often used for corporate transport, accidents can cause serious injuries.
- Church Bus: Carrying large groups, accidents can harm many people.
- Tourist Bus: Traveling long distances on unfamiliar routes, these buses face higher accident risks.
- Passenger Van: Smaller than buses but still carries large groups, leading to serious accidents.
- Shuttle Bus: Common in airports and hotels, accidents can injure passengers and nearby people.
Injuries We Commonly See After Car Accidents
Bus accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, with varying impacts on your day-to-day life.
At Rodriguez Law Firm, we regularly represent clients suffering from back injuries, broken bones, internal injuries, whiplash, sprains, torn ligaments and emotional distress. In more severe cases, we’ve worked with victims suffering long-term disability, traumatic brain injuries, permanent scarring, burns, spinal cord injuries and the tragic loss of a loved one in a wrongful death.
IMPORTANT: The success of your case depends on proving you suffered injuries. As our founder Dagoberto Rodriguez explains in this Instagram video, you MUST have records of medical treatment or an evaluation right after the accident happened
Once you’ve received an evaluation, you can call Rodriguez Law Firm to continue your treatment—at no cost—while we work on your compensation claim.
How Much Compensation Can You Claim?
It depends. The main factors are the severity of your injuries, the at-fault party’s financial status, and the limits of relevant insurance policies. If the bus is owned by a corporation or government agency, then the insurance policy could be higher than normal—in one of our similar case results, Rodriguez Law Firm secured a €1 million claim for a client.
But it’s important to understand how personal injury claims work. During an interview on the Rodriguez Law Firm YouTube channel, the owner of 57 Insurance Agency, Manuel Diaz, explained how an insurance payout is supposed to help a vehicle accident victim “return to the same or a similar state” as before the accident.
This means you get compensation that is equivalent to:
- The costs of your medical treatment
- The costs of your lost wages
- Multiplying these by the intensity of your emotional suffering
- The future costs of these three elements
In the case of the $1 million payout, the client was the family member of a victim who tragically lost their life following an automobile accident.

How Much Are Rodriguez Law Firm’s Legal Fees?
At Rodriguez Law Firm, we work with a No Win, Wo Fee promise. This means that if we don’t win your case, you don’t owe us anything.
In the United States the contingency fee for a car accident injury is usually 33-40% of your total claim. But unfortunately, some attorneys will charge you hidden fees on top of the contingency fee—without making this clear.
We don’t believe that’s fair.
At Rodriguez Law Firm, your agreement is simple and transparent: no added expenses, no hidden charges, no last-minute surprises. This will be clearly stated in the first clause of the contract you sign when you hire one of our lawyers to represent you.
