Does The Driver Have Rideshare Insurance?
Like other motor vehicle accidents, you may have sufficient injury claims to be able to sue the driver directly after a ridesharing collision. If your own driver made a mistake that led to your injuries, you can seek compensation.
However, your case can get complex when dealing with insurance companies. In some cases, drivers have personal insurance policies to cover injuries in an accident. However, for many app-based services, like Uber or Lyft, the companies may offer supplemental insurance for drivers who are working at the time of the crash. As such, when injured by a gig driver, having someone on your side to help you identify all potential sources of compensation is essential.
Fair compensation allows you to cover these and other injury expenses:
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Long-term medical costs
- Reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Disability or disfigurement
Every case is unique, but our rideshare accident attorneys can help you consider all direct costs so that you do not overlook anything that may increase your financial compensation.
