Ride Sharing Accidents
Navigating Uber, Lyft, and rideshare insurance claims after a serious crash.
Rideshare accidents involve layered insurance policies, app status questions, and corporate legal teams working to shift blame. Whether you were a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian, your claim may involve multiple coverage sources.
Kelso Law Group untangles rideshare insurance issues and pursues full compensation from every available policy. At Kelso Law Group, our attorneys know how insurers and defense teams evaluate claims because we have defended large companies and carriers — and we use that insight to build stronger cases for our clients.
Common Rideshare Accident Cases We Handle
Rideshare injury claims depend on driver status, available coverage, and fault. We represent clients in cases involving:
- Passenger injuries during an active trip
- Collisions with rideshare vehicles
- Pedestrian and cyclist strikes by rideshare drivers
- Uninsured and underinsured rideshare scenarios
- Driver negligence and distracted driving
- Disputes between personal and commercial policies
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
If someone else’s negligence caused your injuries, you should not have to bear the financial burden alone. The value of your claim depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your work and daily life, and the insurance coverage available.
Depending on your case, compensation may include:
- Emergency care, surgery, therapy, and future medical treatment
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage and out-of-pocket expenses
- Emotional distress and mental anguish
- Wrongful death damages for surviving family members
What To Do After a Rideshare Crash
Rideshare apps create unique evidence. After an accident, follow these steps:
- Seek medical attention immediately — even if you feel fine. Some serious injuries take time to appear.
- Call the police or appropriate authorities and make sure an official report is filed.
- Document the scene with photos, witness names, and your own notes while details are fresh.
- Screenshot your ride receipt, app trip status, and driver information in the rideshare app.
- Notify your insurance company, but avoid giving a recorded statement to the at-fault party’s insurer.
- Contact Kelso Law Group before accepting any settlement offer. We can investigate liability and fight for full compensation.
