We Will Work to Ensure You Get the Compensation You Deserve
If the rideshare vehicle you were in was an Uber, then you are automatically covered by that company’s $1 million auto insurance policy. This applies whether the driver was at fault for another driver was. If you were the passenger, you do not even have to prove fault. Lyft has a similar policy.
This allows us to use the resources we would otherwise use to prove fault, to instead build the strongest possible case for all damages you are eligible for. Depending on the accident and the type of injuries you have sustained, you may be eligible for past and future medical bills, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, lost income, emotional distress, and more.
While $1 million seems like a lot on the surface, if your injuries were catastrophic or you lost a loved one, your rideshare accident lawyer may need to explore other avenues for compensation. Why? Because these damages can easily exceed the policy limit of $1 million.
Your Case May or May Not Have to Go to Court
We know you likely have many questions, and when you contact us for your free consultation with a rideshare accident lawyer, we can answer them for you. One of the most common questions we get involves whether or not the case will need to go to court. The fact is that it depends on your case.
We will work to find the best possible outcome. This may involve negotiating aggressively to get a settlement offer that covers your damages. If the insurance company is unwilling to offer a reasonable settlement, then we may have to take the court to case. Keep in mind though – only a small fraction of personal injuries ever actually got to court.
