Understanding Rideshare Accident Claims

Rideshare crashes can be tricky because fault and insurance coverage depend on what the driver was doing at the time of the accident:

• 
  The driver had the app off their personal insurance applies.
• 
  The app was on but no passenger assigned — limited rideshare coverage applies.
• 
  The driver was en route to pick up or carrying a passenger — full Uber or Lyft commercial insurance applies.

Our team investigates every detail — from trip records to GPS data — to ensure you’re covered under the right policy.

Common Causes of Rideshare Accidents

Distracted or reckless driving

Fatigue from long driving hours

Speeding or aggressive maneuvers

Poor vehicle maintenance

Other negligent drivers on the road

You May Be Entitled To

• 
  Medical treatment and hospital costs
• 
  Vehicle repairs or replacement
• 
  Lost wages and reduced income potential
• 
  Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma

Rideshare companies and their insurers have deep pockets and strong legal teams — we know how to fight them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who pays for my medical bills after an Uber/Lyft accident?

If the rideshare driver was at fault, their commercial policy (up to $1 million) may cover your injuries. If another driver caused the crash, their insurance applies — and we’ll coordinate both sides.

Can I file a claim if I was a rideshare driver?

Yes. Whether you were logged into the app or transporting a passenger, you may qualify for Uber or Lyft’s driver coverage.

What if the rideshare company denies my claim?

Don’t accept a denial without speaking to us. We’ll challenge unfair rejections and make sure you get what you’re owed.
