What Does a Rideshare Accident Injury Attorney Do?
When you're injured in an Uber or Lyft accident in Idaho, our attorneys will:
- Navigate complex rideshare insurance coverage. We determine which insurance policies apply based on the driver's status (offline, waiting for rides, en route to pickup, or during trip) and pursue claims against all responsible parties including rideshare companies, drivers, and other vehicles involved.
- Protect you from insurance tactics. Both rideshare companies and their insurers will try to minimize your compensation. We handle all communications and negotiations to ensure you receive fair value for your injuries.
- Build and litigate your case. If settlement offers are inadequate, we'll file suit against Uber, Lyft, or other responsible parties. Our experienced trial lawyers know how to effectively present rideshare accident cases to Idaho juries.
- Maximize your compensation. We pursue full damages for medical costs, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term care needs resulting from your rideshare accident injuries.
Contact a rideshare accident attorney immediately after an Uber or Lyft crash to protect your rights and begin building your case while evidence is fresh.
