Although Uber and Lyft have emerged as helpful transportation alternatives, customers of these ride-sharing apps are not exempt from both the physical and emotional damages caused by an accident. After this kind of accident, many questions and disputes can unfold concerning insurance and liability. Who is at fault? Who is covered by what insurance? Does this driver even have insurance? Fortunately, you will not have to go through the turmoil of answering these questions by yourself.

The experienced Uber and Lyft accident lawyer of Leigh Law Firm in San Diego can help you fight for the compensation you deserve. No one should be left wondering what to do after falling victim to a ride-share car accident. Our attorney can serve as your aggressive advocate in court.

Who Is Liable?

In California, Uber and Lyft must carry a minimum of $1 million in insurance to cover death, personal injury, and property damage caused by their drivers. This insurance is effective from the time a driver accepts a user’s ride request to the time the driver has completed the ride. Uber and Lyft drivers are also responsible for having personal insurance for their vehicles, although this may not always extend to their ride-sharing passengers. In any case, a skilled attorney can employ the appropriate measures to establish liability and recover the damages you are entitled to after an accident.

Regardless of whether the company or the driver is found liable for the accident, you are entitled to all damages sustained, including:

• Injury or injuries requiring medical expenses
• Loss of future income from being unable to work
• Emotional distress
