Can I claim compensation against the bus service for injuries from falling down the stairs on board?

Looking for advice regarding a personal injury claim against the bus service I was using when I had an trip and fall accident on board that was not fault.

I was traveling to college on a bus and i came down the stairs to get off at my stop, but the bus was going very fast and the driver must have slammed on the breaks to quickly so the bus jerked back and forth violently and I fell down the steps due to his reckless driving and failing to see me or even consider any passengers that may have gotten up to get off as he was near a busy stop.

I lost all control as I fell down the bus staircase and banged my head pretty hard, dislocated my shoulder and fractured my great left toe.

I have my walrus card bus pass and Its all on CCTV as evidence of the accident and proof of the drivers liability.
I have been in a lot of pain, had my arm in a sling and had a limp as I walk, I have also missed a week in college and will have to catch up.

I need some free legal advice, I was wondering if I would be better off getting a no win no fee solicitor than
claiming myself?
