Uber Or Lyft Accident Injury Claims

Have You Been Injured In Or By An Uber Or Lyft Vehicle?

In just a few years, Uber and Lyft have gone from a novelty to a staple of California transportation, especially for busy folks in urban hubs like Los Angeles or San Francisco. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, rideshare car drivers are at least as likely to get into accidents as the rest of us, which has created an entirely new category of personal injury claims.

When you are injured in an accident involving one or more rideshare vehicles and drivers, it is vital that you contact a skilled attorney as soon as possible. Neither Uber nor Lyft are particularly enthusiastic about paying out big injury payments, and a lawyer will help make sure they take your claim seriously and pay you the compensation you deserve.

What Kinds Of Uber Or Lyft Accidents Can A Lawyer Help Me Claim Compensation For?

Rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft may seem interchangeable at first glance, and to most passengers or bystanders, there’s little to distinguish one from the other. However, the circumstances of an accident involving a rideshare vehicle can vary greatly, depending on how the crash occurred and who was at fault.

When injured in a rideshare-related accident, it’s not just about whether Uber or Lyft is involved; what truly matters is where and how you were injured. These accidents generally fall into the following categories:

• As A Passenger In A Rideshare Vehicle
  • You’re injured in an accident caused by another driver while riding in an Uber or Lyft.
  • Your rideshare driver causes the accident, resulting in injuries to you.
• As An Outside Party
  • You’re in another vehicle when a rideshare driver causes an accident that injures you.
  • You’re a pedestrian, bicyclist, or motorcyclist injured in an accident caused by an Uber or Lyft driver on duty.

Each of these situations involves different factors and complexities, particularly when dealing with the insurance companies responsible for covering damages. Rideshare accidents are further complicated by the question of whether the driver was actively transporting passengers, on route to a pick-up, or off-duty at the time of the crash, which can determine the applicable insurance coverage.

What Can I Get Compensation For In An Uber Or Lyft Rideshare Accident Injury Claim?

In any personal injury case, including those involving Uber or Lyft, a skilled attorney can help you pursue compensation for all damages caused by the accident. These may include:

• Medical Expenses
  • Hospital bills, surgical costs, and diagnostics
  • Medications and specialist consultations
  • Physical therapy and ongoing treatments
• Lost Income
  • Wages you’ve missed due to the injury
  • Future earnings lost because of long-term disability or recovery
• Pain And Suffering
  • Emotional distress and trauma-related costs
  • Reduced quality of life or loss of enjoyment in daily activities
  • Loss of consortium, if the injury affects your relationship with your spouse

Every direct or indirect cost caused by your injury—whether financial, physical, or emotional—should be covered by the parties responsible for the accident. However, insurance companies representing rideshare companies or their drivers are unlikely to pay out large claims without a fight.
