Uber/Lyft/Ridesharing Accidents

A ridesharing accident claim is a legal process through which victims seek compensation for injuries sustained in an accident involving an Uber, Lyft, or other rideshare service vehicle. These cases often come with unique challenges due to the layered insurance policies and legal requirements specific to ridesharing companies.

Who Should File a Claim and Why Having an Attorney Is Essential

• Benefits of Filing: Anyone injured in a rideshare accident—whether as a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian—may file a claim to seek compensation for their injuries. These claims are crucial for individuals who face mounting medical bills or loss of income due to the accident.
• Consequences Without Representation: Navigating the insurance policies involved in Uber and Lyft accidents can be complex, as these companies have specific coverages that vary depending on the driver’s status (e.g., waiting for a ride, en route, or carrying passengers). Without legal guidance, victims may find it difficult to receive fair compensation, with insurance companies often trying to settle for less. The statute of limitations for filing a rideshare accident claim in Florida is four years, underscoring the importance of prompt action.
