Rideshare claims involve layered insurance policies that change depending on what the driver was doing. We untangle the coverage for passengers, drivers and others on the road.

Uber & Lyft (Rideshare) Accidents

We represent passengers, rideshare drivers and people hit by rideshare vehicles, and we work to identify every source of coverage available to you.

  • Passengers injured during a trip
  • Collisions between a rideshare car and another vehicle
  • Pedestrians and cyclists struck by rideshare drivers
  • Rideshare drivers injured by other motorists
  • Distracted driving while using the app
  • Disputes over which policy applies

California Law

Coverage depends on the driver's app status

California requires rideshare companies to carry commercial liability coverage. While a ride is in progress, up to $1 million in coverage may be available. Different, lower limits apply when the app is on but no ride has been accepted.

  1. Free Consultation

    Tell us what happened by phone, video, or in person. We listen, answer your questions, and explain your options in plain language.

  2. Investigation

    We gather reports, records, photos, and witness accounts to build a clear picture of who is responsible.

  3. Claim & Negotiation

    We handle the insurance companies and pursue compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

  4. Resolution

    Whether through settlement or, if necessary, litigation, we stay by your side and keep you informed every step of the way.

Medical expenses

Emergency care, hospital stays, surgery, therapy, medication and future treatment.

Lost income

Wages you missed while recovering and reduced ability to earn in the future.

Pain and suffering

Physical pain, emotional distress and the loss of enjoyment of daily life.

Property damage

Repair or replacement of your vehicle and other personal property.

Every case is different. No attorney can guarantee a particular result.

Claims usually proceed against the applicable insurance policies. We review the facts to determine every party and policy that may be responsible.

Passengers are generally covered by the rideshare company's commercial policy during a trip, and may also have claims against another at-fault driver.
