If so, Salter, Healy, Rivera & Heptner will handle the negotiation from start to finish without any form of advance payment should you decide to hire our team.
Uber/Lyft Provides Coverage Where Applicable
Establishing fault might be difficult. On the one hand, if a third-party driver causes the collision, their insurer may be liable. On the other hand, if you were a passenger of a negligent Uber or Lyft driver, you file a claim against the rideshare insurance policy or through their motor vehicle insurance policy.
Determining liability for your injuries requires our Largo Uber/Lyft accident lawyers to consider the following:
Whether the driver was logged into the app
If you were being picked up as a customer
If you were a third-party vehicle
Other relevant details
Both Uber and Lyft use this information when providing insurance coverage to passengers and third-party motorists. In the event of an accident, both Uber and Lyft provide up to $1 million in coverage, but only when drivers have a passenger in the vehicle or are on their way to pick one up. If you are eligible for coverage, Salter, Healy, Rivera & Heptner will negotiate for medical bills, lost wages, pain, and suffering (if applicable), punitive damages (rare), and future losses.
