Ridesharing apps like Uber and Lyft have revolutionized the industry. With a simple touch of a button, you can get a ride, often at a fraction of the cost of a traditional taxi.

Tempe, AZ Rideshare Accident Lawyer

Like with any car crash, your first step following a ridesharing accident is to seek medical attention for yourself and others. If possible, you’ll also want to gather evidence like pictures of the scene. Whether you were in an Uber or a Lyft or if you were hit by a ridesharing driver, then you’re entitled to seek compensation for your injuries. Besides medical expenses, you might be entitled to compensation for lost wages and even pain and suffering.

The main complication of ridesharing accidents is determining who’s at fault. In a typical car accident, the driver and their insurance company are the ones usually held liable. This can change when Uber or Lyft are involved. Both companies have insurance policies in place to cover damages following an accident, meaning they can be held liable.

Often, this isn’t the case, and if it can be proved that the driver was the one at fault, then usually they’re the only ones liable. Our attorneys can investigate the accident, including determining which party or parties should be held liable. Whether the company itself is liable or if it’s the driver’s fault, we’ll work hard to help you obtain the maximum compensation. We know how to apply legal pressure to force a fair settlement, but we’re also not afraid to go to court.
