Uber and Lyft cases are about which insurance applies at the moment of the crash. The platforms' coverage shifts based on driver app status: offline, available and waiting, en route to pickup, or carrying a passenger. We pull the trip data, identify the right policy phase, and pursue the up to $1M in coverage that applies during active rides.
What we handle
Passenger injury during an active ride
Uber's or Lyft's $1M policy is in force. The driver's personal policy is irrelevant to your recovery in most cases.
Driver as plaintiff (rideshare driver injured)
Uninsured/underinsured-motorist coverage from the platform applies during active periods. We make sure rideshare drivers know what they have.
Pedestrians and other vehicles struck by rideshare drivers
App-status windows determine which policy responds. Trip data is the central piece.
How we work
- 1
Free, no-pressure consultation
We listen first. We answer your questions. There is no fee for the initial conversation — and you decide whether to engage us at the end of it.
- 2
Investigation and evidence preservation
Police reports, scene photos, witness statements, vehicle data, surveillance video, medical records. The earlier we collect, the harder it is for the other side to reshape the story later.
- 3
Treatment, demand, and negotiation
We coordinate with your providers, document the full extent of damages — medical, lost income, pain — and present a demand backed by evidence. We push back firmly when an insurer lowballs.
- 4
Litigation when necessary
Most matters settle. When an insurer refuses to be reasonable, we file. Preparing every case as if it will be tried is what makes the settlement number move.
What to do right away
- Get medical attention immediately.
- Screenshot your trip — both the receipt and the driver profile.
- Save the in-app trip details before the app updates them.
- Photograph the scene, the vehicle, and the rideshare placards.
- Do not give a recorded statement to either insurer before contacting us.
