Understanding Rideshare Accident Claims
Rideshare accident claims involve navigating both state laws and rideshare company policies. Victims must determine liability, which can be complex due to the multiple parties involved, such as the driver, rideshare company and other motorists. It is crucial to gather evidence, report the accident promptly and consult with a knowledgeable attorney to ensure fair compensation for injuries and damages.
What Makes Uber/Lyft Accident Claims So Complex?
Several factors make Uber and Lyft accident claims particularly challenging:
- Multiple insurance policies may be involved
- Driver status impacts which coverage applies
- Companies classify drivers as contractors, not employees
- Determining liability can be complicated
- Rideshare companies fight aggressively to limit payouts
Taking on big rideshare companies and their insurers benefits greatly from the guidance of a seasoned accident and injury attorney.
