• As a rideshare driver, you’re hurt in an accident that involves a third party
• A driver or passenger in another vehicle is hurt by an Uber or Lyft driver

Knowing if you have a strong legal claim can be a complex question. Don’t miss out on the compensation that you deserve by assuming that you don’t have a case. We invite you to meet with our Miami Uber/Lyft accident lawyers for a personal evaluation of your case.

In an Uber or Lyft accident lawsuit, you may win compensation for any of the following losses:

• On-the-scene medical care like EMTs and ambulance service
• Emergency room and urgent care costs
• X-rays, scans, blood tests and other diagnostic care
• Prescription medication, mobility aids
• Physical therapy
• Mental health care
• Lost work and lost career potential
• Help at home with child care, chores, mowing the lawn, etc., if you’re unable to because of your injuries
• Pain and suffering compensation, mental anguish compensation and payment for the fact that your life isn’t the same

The exact amount that you can win for an Uber/Lyft accident lawsuit is unique to the actual losses that you have. The purpose of a lawsuit is to determine a fair amount of compensation based on your actual damages. In other words, not all claims are created equal. To maximize the compensation in your case, we determine what your actual losses are. Then, we diligently work to earn you the full amount that you deserve.

Uber and Lyft accident claims are based on Florida car accident laws. Florida accident law says that victims may claim compensation anytime they’re hurt by the negligence of others. When you’re the passenger in a rideshare vehicle, the accident is usually the other driver’s fault. Even if you’re a rideshare driver or the driver of another vehicle, you may also have a claim for compensation. One of the ways that our attorneys help you is by determining who might be responsible for the accident.The critical factor for determining liability is whose actions lead to the accident, not necessarily whether you are in the rideshare vehicle or another vehicle at the time of the accident. How you pursue your claim may depend on whether the responsible party is the rideshare driver or another driver. Both Uber and Lyft have insurance guarantees for their drivers. In addition, Florida has minimum insurance requirements that apply to all drivers. These resources may be available to you as an Uber or Lyft accident victim.
