Special Considerations Of Rideshare Accidents
These accident cases are complex because of the many variables that are possible. For example:
- Were you in a rideshare car that caused an accident?
- Were you in a rideshare car that was hit by another vehicle?
- Did you have an accident with a rideshare vehicle?
- Was the rideshare driver logged into the app at the time of the accident?
- Was the rideshare driver transporting a passenger?
All of these questions, and more, must be answered and evidence must be collected. It is not something you should try to handle yourself.
The answers to these questions will determine who is responsible for the rideshare accident and what type of liability coverage applies. We know how to get the answers to what happened in your situation and how to pursue the compensation you need.
Can You Sue Uber If They Get In An Accident?
Yes, you can bring a lawsuit against Uber if they caused an accident while you were a passenger. Each case is unique, however, and will vary based on the circumstances of the accident.
Can You Sue Lyft If You Had An Accident?
Yes. If you were driving your vehicle and were in an accident with a Lyft, you can sue them as long as you were not more than 50% responsible for the accident. We will explain how this works in your case.
Is It Worth It To Hire A Rideshare Accident Attorney?
Yes, it is worth it to hire a rideshare accident attorney for several reasons. Our lawyers are able to negotiate and litigate for much more money than an individual can. We know how to investigate the accident, determine liability and fight the insurance companies. In addition, we work on contingency fees, which means you pay nothing unless we get compensation for you.
