A bus accident isn't just one driver's mistake. It's often a system failure.

Riding the CTA or a Pace Suburban Bus is part of daily life for many Chicagoans, and few people think about what happens if that ride goes wrong. Bus accidents often involve more than the driver. Liability can extend to the Chicago Transit Authority, Pace, a private charter company, or a maintenance contractor responsible for keeping the vehicle safe.

Bret Franco’s defense-side experience representing large companies and insurers means he knows how these organizations build their case against you long before you've even filed a claim. Municipal agencies like the CTA also carry their own notice requirements and shorter filing deadlines than a typical injury claim.

From CTA and Pace routes to charter and school buses, Bret represents injured passengers, pedestrians, and drivers, and takes cases to trial when it's the only way to get a fair result.
