Between the Jacksonville Transportation Authority, Amtrak, and the Jacksonville Skyway, there is no shortage of opportunities for Floridians to get around if they wish to use mass transportation. For the most part, these forms of transportation get passengers to and from their destinations safely. However, accidents happen, and when they do, they are often very serious. If you have been hurt in a bus, train, or monorail accident in Jacksonville, Florida, you must take your legal options into consideration. The attorneys at Ansbacher Law understand that you may be suffering from serious physical, emotional, and financial burdens as a result of your accident and are here to help. To discuss your case with an experienced legal team, contact Ansbacher Law today.
The Jacksonville Transportation Authority provides buses to people in the city to make it easier to get around. However, buses are involved in accidents more frequently than other types of mass transportation, as they are forced to share the roads with other vehicles. Bus passengers can easily be injured even in a minor accident because most buses do not provide seatbelts. If you were injured in a Jacksonville bus accident, you must consider your legal options and speak with an experienced personal injury attorney.
Trains and monorails are involved in accidents far less frequently than buses, however, when these accidents happen, they are often very severe. There are a number of different rail options in the Jacksonville area, such as Amtrak and the Jacksonville Sky monorail. Rail accidents can be caused by operator speeding, sudden stops and starts, derailment, and collisions with other trains. If you were hurt in a train or monorail accident, you must consider your legal options going forward.
Those seriously injured in bus, train, or monorail accidents may be entitled to significant compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial burdens they’ve sustained. However, to have a successful claim against the negligent party, you must fulfill the burden of proof. You may be able to fulfill the burden of proof by taking photos or videos of the accident scene and collecting witness contact information.
Being injured in an accident caused by another party’s negligence can result in serious long-term burdens. However, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and more. It is essential to retain the services of an experienced personal injury attorney who can effectively represent your interests.
If you or a loved one were injured in a mass transportation accident, you must speak with an attorney about your legal options going forward. For over 20 years, the attorneys at Ansbacher Law have proudly represented clients throughout North Florida when they have been hurt by another party’s negligence. We understand how devastating the impacts of an accident can be, which is why we are here to help. Contact Ansbacher Law today to discuss your case.
