Attorney Dallas M. Hartman represented multiple school-age children who suffered a range of injuries in a serious school bus crash in Western Pennsylvania. The injuries sustained by our clients varied in severity, from moderate harm to permanent, life-altering conditions, each requiring individualized attention and advocacy throughout the litigation process.
The case involved complex liability against multiple parties, including issues surrounding the bus driver's licensing, the hiring practices of those responsible for placing him behind the wheel, and significant credibility challenges that had to be confronted and overcome. After extensive litigation, the matter was resolved through a global settlement exceeding $21,000,000, securing meaningful compensation for each of the injured children and their families.
