CRITICAL: 90-Day Notice of Claim for MTA Bus Accidents

If you were injured in an accident involving an MTA bus, NYC Transit bus, or other government-operated bus, you have only 90 DAYS to file a Notice of Claim with the government entity.

Missing this deadline can permanently bar your case, no matter how severe your injuries or how clear the bus driver's fault. The MTA paid over $431 MILLION in bus accident settlements over 5 years, but only to victims who followed the proper claim procedures.

Don't lose your right to compensation. Contact us immediately after any bus accident involving MTA, school districts, or government agencies. We'll file your Notice of Claim and protect your rights.
