Fighting for Justice After Uber and Lyft Accidents
Uber and Lyft accidents can leave injured passengers, drivers, and other motorists facing medical bills, lost income, and long-term recovery challenges. Because Uber and Lyft accidents involve rideshare companies, multiple insurance policies, and complex coverage rules, victims often struggle to understand their rights. At Krystal Garza & Associates, our attorneys take immediate action to investigate the crash, determine available coverage, and fight for the full compensation you deserve after Uber and Lyft accidents.
Understanding Uber and Lyft Accidents
Uber and Lyft accidents occur when rideshare vehicles are carrying passengers, en route to pick up a rider, or operating in driver mode. Each situation affects how insurance coverage applies. Rideshare companies have layered insurance policies, but they frequently attempt to limit payouts or deny responsibility. Our team analyzes app data, trip status, and insurance details to determine how coverage applies in Uber and Lyft accidents and what compensation is available.
Common Causes of Uber and Lyft Accidents
Uber and Lyft accidents may result from distracted driving, speeding, driver fatigue, unsafe pickups or drop-offs, sudden stops, aggressive driving, or other motorists acting negligently. Rideshare drivers often navigate unfamiliar areas, rely heavily on GPS, and face pressure to accept rides quickly, increasing the risk of crashes. Our attorneys review trip logs, driver histories, traffic camera footage, and crash scene evidence to establish what caused the Uber and Lyft accidents.
Determining Liability in Uber and Lyft Accident Cases
Liability in Uber and Lyft accidents can involve the rideshare driver, another driver, the rideshare company’s insurance provider, or multiple parties at once. Coverage depends on whether the driver was logged into the app, awaiting a ride, or actively transporting a passenger. We carefully evaluate each layer of insurance coverage to make sure every responsible party is held accountable in Uber and Lyft accidents.
How We Investigate Fault
Our investigation includes examining police reports, reviewing app activity records, gathering witness statements, analyzing vehicle damage, and consulting accident reconstruction specialists when necessary. We work with medical professionals to document your injuries and their long-term effects. This comprehensive approach strengthens your case and helps secure full compensation for victims of Uber and Lyft accidents.
Common Injuries and Compensation
Uber and Lyft accidents can cause injuries such as whiplash, fractures, spinal injuries, traumatic brain injuries, internal trauma, and long-term disabilities. Compensation may include medical bills, future treatment costs, lost income, diminished earning capacity, property damage, rehabilitation, and non-economic damages such as pain and suffering. Because insurance companies often minimize claims related to Uber and Lyft accidents, we fight aggressively on your behalf.
