How Do I Win a Georgia Bus Accident Lawsuit?

Most claims are based on negligence, and to win, you must prove:

1. The defendant owed you a duty of care
2. That duty was breached
3. Their breach caused the bus accident
4. You suffered actual damages

In Georgia, buses are considered common carriers, meaning drivers have a heightened legal duty to protect passengers. This makes it easier to prove negligence—even for small mistakes.

Who Can Be Held Liable for a Georgia Bus Accident?

After our investigation, we may find fault with:

• The bus driver
• A private bus company or school district
• Ride Gwinnett or other public transport operators
• Third-party motorists or pedestrians
• The City of Georgia or other government entities
• Bus manufacturers or maintenance contractors
• Property owners or road maintenance crews

Anyone who contributed to the crash could be held accountable.

Common Bus Accident Injuries

Bus accidents often cause serious trauma due to the size and weight of the vehicles involved. Victims can suffer:

• Brain injuries
• Concussions
• Whiplash
• Spinal cord damage
• Fractures
• Neck and back injuries
• Burns and scarring
• Crush injuries
• Eye injuries
• Amputation or degloving
• Paralysis
• Wrongful death

If you’re injured in a Georgia bus crash, get medical help immediately and then call our team.

What’s the Time Limit to File a Bus Accident Lawsuit in Georgia?

Under Georgia’s statute of limitations, most bus accident lawsuits must be filed within 2 years of the crash.

However, claims involving public agencies (like Ride Gwinnett or school districts) may have shorter deadlines—sometimes just 6 months to give notice of intent to sue.
