Morristown School Bus Accident Attorney
Busses are some of the largest vehicles that occupy the road, next to semi-trucks. School bus drivers have a lot of responsibility as they are transporting many children at a time, to and from schools. In the job description for school bus drivers, they are required to be extremely attentive to traffic and weather conditions so they may employ safe driving methods in order to ensure the safety of their passengers. These drivers are also responsible to ensure that their vehicles are in good operating condition by testing brakes, lights and other components on a daily basis. Finally, they are responsible to maintain a safe environment on the bus by enforcing rules of conduct and behavior of their passengers.
While school bus drivers are not generally required to possess a college degree, there are various training programs that they must complete in order to ensure their competency on the road. When a school bus driver acts negligently, or is not prepared, the results can be catastrophic. In addition, there are many other negligent drivers on the road who can cause accidents. The results of a school bus accident can often be catastrophic to the passengers as there is generally a great lack of safety restraints and airbags to minimize the damage done in an accident.

Mr. Bowlin represented me on an assault charge. My bond conditions wouldn't allow me to go home to my husband and children. The day after my arrest, on a Sunday, Troy met with me and my family to discuss my unfortunate arrest. The very next morning Mr. Bowlin was able to get my bond conditions lifted allowing me to go home to my family. His office went above and beyond the call of duty which resulted in a dismissal of my charge.- Former Client

A few years ago I was addicted to drugs. My addiction led me to steal and eventually I caught a few criminal charges. Troy Bowlin took my case. I spent time in jail for a little while as my bond was revoked. Troy immediately started working on getting me released and helping me through the release process. Troy was finally able to get me released to a 45-day rehab facility versus spending more time in jail. The rehab was a wonderful experience on my road to sobriety. Once I left rehab, the court appearances began. Troy was always present and on time. He would even be there early to discuss with me what would probably happen before court began. This was very comforting because when you are facing felony charges, court is very nerve-wracking. Troy was able to get me two years unsupervised probation. Based on the charges I had incurred this was short of a miracle. The two years gave me time to evaluate my life and become clean and sober. After the two years, Troy filed for judicial diversion. Once this was done, I have absolutely no charges on my record today. From where I started to where I ended up is all because of Troy's hard work. I find myself very lucky to have been blessed with this kind of caliber of lawyer. If it wasn't for Troy I would not be starting Nursing School in the fall. My future is bright now and my path is clear. If it was not for Troy I would not be as successful as I am now.- Former Client
