WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR A RIDESHARING ACCIDENT?
Responsibility for a rideshare accident may lie with the driver of the rideshare vehicle, if that driver was negligent. If another driver caused the crash with the ridesharing car, the other driver could be held accountable for crash losses. When the driver of a rideshare vehicle has caused harm, insurance coverage to compensate victims may be available through a substantial insurance policy offered by the rideshare company. While companies have a history of using different techniques to try to avoid becoming responsible for driver-caused collisions, Uber and Lyft do make insurance available now. Unfortunately, it can still be a challenge for victims to get insurers to pay the full amount necessary to provide fair compensation for losses.
HOW CAN I PURSUE A CLAIM FOR COMPENSATION AFTER A RIDESHARING ACCIDENT?
Steinger, Greene & Feiner can negotiate on your behalf with insurers to help you fight for a fair out-of-court settlement that will compensate you for losses caused by a rideshare accident. Arriving at a settlement means you won’t have to go to trial to prove your right to compensation and to prove the extent of loss. Sometimes, however, no settlement agreement is reached and you will need to sue in court. If your accident happened in Fort Lauderdale, Broward County Courts preside over small claims, while Circuit Courts preside over cases where a victim alleges he sustained more substantial damages. Steinger, Greene & Feiner can assist you in determining the appropriate state or federal court in which to sue, and can help you to make compelling arguments to present to the court to maximize your chances of obtaining compensation.
