Dealing with the aftermath of a car accident can be a challenging experience, especially when it involves ride-sharing giants like Lyft or Uber. Whether you’re a driver or a passenger, seeking out the best representation to manage your claims is an essential step in securing the justice and compensation you deserve. At the Law Offices of Andrew Zeytuntsyan, we assist our clients in overcoming the difficult legal aspects of their auto accident, and it’s our goal to help you achieve the same.
When an accident occurs during a ride-share, the question of liability becomes a tricky jigsaw puzzle involving multiple pieces, the ride-sharing company, driver, and often additional drivers or even pedestrians. To make it more challenging, there's a blend of insurance coverages in play, from the ride-sharing company’s policy to the individual driver's insurance. If another vehicle is involved, that adds yet another layer to the insurance and liability web. The complexity often leads to prolonged legal discussions, as each party involved seeks to minimize their own responsibility.
While Lyft and Uber take multiple measures to ensure passenger and driver safety, there's no bulletproof shield against accidents. If you find yourself in the unfortunate circumstance of a ride-sharing accident, it's important to know that you have specific rights and entitlements. You can claim compensation not only for physical injuries but also for lost wages if you're unable to work, and for emotional distress that you might experience. You can also seek compensation for any property damage incurred during the incident, like a ruined laptop or smartphone. However, understanding your rights is only the first step. Actually securing these claims can be a complex process filled with legal jargon and intricate policies. A personal injury lawyer can make a significant difference in the amount you're able to claim, helping ensure you get what you're truly entitled to, rather than settling for less because of loopholes you weren't aware of.
