Compensation claims for bus, coach and lorry accidents

Bus Accident Claims

If you or a relative has been injured in a bus, coach or lorry accident, through no fault of your own you may be able to claim compensation.

You may be able to make a claim against the company or the driver involved if they failed to drive with care and attention, or if you were injured because the vehicle was badly maintained.
