Did a Dangerous Bus Stop Location Lead to Injury?

Walker, Hamilton & Kearns, LLP may be the leading plaintiffs’ firm in Northern California in this area of litigation, having successfully prosecuted the ground-breaking case of Bonanno v. Central Contra Costa Transit Authority (2003) 30 Cal 4th 139 over a 10-year period.

Walter Walker began developing the theory of dangerous locations of bus stops over 25 years ago, and has prosecuted numerous cases of this type, including a dangerous-condition bus-stop case against the City and County of San Francisco that settled for $2,040,000.
