Ridesharing services has been attributed to a 2-3% increase in auto accident fatalities, accounting for around 1,100 deaths. Ridesharing has been linked to an increase in vehicles on the road, and therefore, congestion.
As rideshare companies such as Uber and Lyft have become a common mode of transportation, it is not surprising that the spike in rideshare car accidents follows. If you, or a loved one, was involved in a car accident involving a ride share company, whether that be that you were driving, a passenger, or a pedestrian, the lawyers at Razavi Law Group are here to evaluate your case and investigate your collision to see if you are eligible for compensation.
The most common question after being in an accident with a rideshare company is who is liable? And Can I sue the company? The answers depend largely in part on the circumstances pertaining to the collision. Our experienced rideshare accident attorneys at Razavi Law Group consider a few factors in order to determine who is liable:
It is important to keep in mind that Uber and Lyft ensure their drivers with a $1 million insurance policy while they are on duty. This means that if they hit and seriously injure you, or you are hit and seriously injured while in the car, their insurance policy will cover them up to $1 million dollars. However, their insurance policy does not cover their drivers while they are on duty so it is important to note if they were or not as their own personal insurance claims would be in effect.
Whether or not Uber and Lyft’s insurance liability is one of the many tedious parts to a rideshare accident which is why hiring a lawyer is extremely important after such an accident occurs so that their insurance does not try to undercut what you are rightly entitled to. At Razavi Law Group, we are here to ensure that you get the highest settlement possible to ensure that your damages incurred have been fully compensated for.
