How We Help

Rideshare crashes can involve several insurance companies at once, and each may point to another. From the first call, we:

  • Pin down the app status: whether the driver was logged off, waiting for a ride or on a trip, which decides the coverage
  • Preserve the trip data: ride records, GPS and the driver’s app activity from Uber or Lyft
  • Identify every insurer: the rideshare policy, the other driver’s policy and your own
  • Get you medical care: we can refer you to a doctor while we sort out which policies pay
  • Claim uninsured-motorist coverage: when the at-fault driver had little or no insurance
  • Negotiate, or go to court: with the rideshare insurer, and to trial if its offer isn’t fair

Who We Represent

Anyone hurt in a crash involving an Uber or Lyft may have a claim, including:

  • Passengers

    Riders hurt during a trip, whoever caused the crash

  • Rideshare drivers

    Drivers hit by another car while working

  • Other drivers

    People in vehicles struck by a rideshare driver

  • Pedestrians and cyclists

    People on foot or bike hit by a rideshare vehicle

What You Can Recover

Every case is different. Depending on the facts, a rideshare accident claim can include:

  • Medical bills

    Treatment PIP doesn’t cover, including future care

  • Lost wages

    Time missed from work and lost earning ability

  • Pain and suffering

    The physical and emotional impact of your injury

  • Out-of-pocket costs

    Prescriptions, travel to appointments and help at home
