Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft offer convenience—but when an accident happens, the insurance and liability questions can be overwhelming. At My Crash Attorneys, we help injured passengers, drivers, and third parties understand their rights.

Rideshare accidents involve unique insurance rules, multiple parties, and complex corporate policies. Whether you were a passenger, a rideshare driver, or another motorist, it can be difficult to determine which insurance company is responsible. At My Crash Attorneys, we help victims cut through the confusion and secure the compensation they need. Our team understands the laws, coverage tiers, and claim processes involved in Uber and Lyft accident cases.

Who We Represent in Rideshare Accident Cases

Rideshare-related crashes affect more than just passengers. We represent:

  • Injured rideshare passengers
  • Uber and Lyft drivers hit by careless motorists
  • Drivers struck by a rideshare vehicle
  • Pedestrians or cyclists injured in rideshare collisions

No matter your role in the accident, our attorneys investigate the facts, gather evidence, and build a claim that accurately reflects your losses.

Understanding Rideshare Insurance Coverage

Uber and Lyft use tiered insurance coverage based on the driver’s status at the time of the crash:

  • App off: Only the driver’s personal insurance applies.
  • App on, waiting for a ride: Limited rideshare coverage may apply.
  • En route to pick up a rider or transporting a passenger: The highest level of rideshare insurance is active.

Determining which tier applies is essential—and rideshare companies do not make this process easy. Our team knows how to identify the correct coverage and push back against insurance tactics designed to minimize payouts.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

After a rideshare accident, you may be eligible to recover compensation for:

  • Medical bills and emergency treatment
  • Rehabilitation or long-term care
  • Lost income and reduced earning capacity
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Property damage
  • Future treatment or ongoing medical needs

We work closely with medical experts and financial professionals to ensure every aspect of your damages is fully documented.
