Public Transport Accident Compensation Claims

When travelling by bus, train or taxi, public transport operators have a duty of care for the safety of their passengers, and in most cases, your journey will be smooth and reliable.

However, should you or a loved one suffer an injury whilst travelling on any form of public transport, we can help you get the compensation you deserve. You deserve to feel safe while you’re travelling, especially as you place your trust in the driver and the public service being offered. Some examples of public transport accident claims we have dealt with include:

injuries caused by the negligent driving of taxi or bus drivers
injuries caused by taxis or buses being in a dangerous condition
injuries caused by inadequate safety measures on train platforms
