Ride-Share Accidents
SERVICES
Accidents involving Uber, Lyft, and other ride-share vehicles raise complex legal and insurance issues. Our firm represents passengers, drivers, and other injured parties in ride-share collisions, identifying all available insurance coverage and pursuing the full compensation our clients deserve.
RIDE-SHARE LIABILITY
Unlike standard auto accidents, ride-share claims involve layered insurance policies and overlapping liability. Uber and Lyft provide coverage that varies based on the driver’s status at the time of the crash. A quick investigation is critical to preserve evidence and determine responsibility.
PASSENGER INJURY CLAIMS
Injured passengers often face confusion about which policy applies. Ride-share companies maintain high-limit coverage for active rides, but claims still require proper documentation and legal advocacy. Passengers are entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings, and pain and suffering, regardless of which driver was at fault.
RIDE-SHARE DRIVER REPRESENTATION
Ride-share drivers injured while on duty may have coverage gaps between personal and commercial policies. Determining which policy applies and when is key to recovering damages.
THIRD-PARTY & PEDESTRIAN CLAIMS
Pedestrians, cyclists, or occupants of other vehicles struck by ride-share drivers have the same right to compensation as passengers — but establishing the company’s responsibility often requires deeper analysis.
INSURANCE COVERAGE DISPUTES
Ride-share insurance policies contain strict exclusions and shifting limits depending on the trip phase. Insurers often attempt to deny responsibility by arguing drivers were “offline” or between rides.
