Rideshare accidents present unique legal challenges due to the involvement of companies like Lyft and Uber, their drivers, and potentially third parties. Rideshare companies typically offer liability coverage, but determining when it applies depends on the driver’s status during the accident (e.g., whether they were on a trip or waiting for a fare). Victims can include passengers, pedestrians, or other drivers. Claims may involve pursuing damages through the driver’s insurance or the rideshare company’s policy. An experienced attorney can navigate the complexities of rideshare accident claims, ensuring victims receive proper compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
