Experienced Bus Accident Representation in Manhattan
Manhattan, NYC's most densely populated borough with over 1.6 million residents plus millions of daily workers and tourists, has the city's most complex bus network. MTA buses navigate congested avenues like 1st Avenue, 2nd Avenue, and crosstown streets like 42nd Street through Times Square. Express buses (X1-X64) transport outer borough commuters at high speeds. Tour buses (Gray Line, Big Bus) carry tourists through Midtown and Times Square. When you're injured in a Manhattan bus accident, you need attorneys who understand New York County Supreme Court at 60 Centre Street and can navigate the MTA's strict 90-day Notice of Claim requirement.
At Licatesi Law Group, we have over 40 years of experience representing Manhattan bus accident victims. We're familiar with every Manhattan neighborhood from the Financial District to Inwood, understand the specific dangers of Manhattan bus routes and tourist traffic, and know how to maximize recovery in New York County Supreme Court. Our attorneys work closely with Manhattan's Level I Trauma Centers at NYU Langone Health, NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell, and Bellevue Hospital to ensure you receive the best medical care and documentation for your case.

CRITICAL: 90-Day Notice for Manhattan MTA Bus Accidents
If you were injured in an accident involving a Manhattan MTA bus (M15, M34, M42, or any NYC Transit bus), you have only 90 DAYS to file a Notice of Claim.
Missing this deadline can permanently bar your Manhattan bus accident 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, but only to victims who followed proper claim procedures.
