Rideshare Accidents: Unique Challenges

Rideshare accidents, involving companies like Uber and Lyft, present unique legal challenges. Determining liability can be complex, as it may involve the rideshare driver, the rideshare company, or even another driver. Navigating insurance claims and seeking fair compensation can be overwhelming without experienced legal guidance.

Common Causes of Rideshare Accidents:

  • Driver Negligence: Distracted driving (e.g., using a phone), fatigue, speeding, or driving under the influence.
  • Vehicle Malfunction: Mechanical failures, such as brake problems or tire blowouts.
  • Inadequate Driver Screening: Failure to properly screen or train rideshare drivers.
  • Rideshare Company Liability: In some cases, the rideshare company itself may be held liable for an accident.

Injuries in Rideshare Accidents:

Rideshare accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, including:

  • Head and Neck Injuries
  • Spinal Cord Injuries
  • Broken Bones and Fractures
  • Internal Organ Damage
  • Lacerations and Abrasions
  • Psychological Trauma

What to Do After a Rideshare Accident:

  1. Seek Medical Attention: Prioritize your health and safety. Even if you feel fine, get checked by a medical professional as some injuries may not be immediately apparent.
  2. Document the Scene: If possible and safe, take photos or videos of the accident scene, the rideshare vehicle, your injuries, and any other relevant details.
  3. Gather Information: Get contact information from the rideshare driver, other passengers, witnesses, and any other drivers involved. Note the rideshare company name, driver’s name, and license plate number.
  4. Report the Accident: Report the accident to the rideshare company and your own insurance company as soon as possible.

Testimonials

Julie B.Santa Anna
I have used the lawyers at Karns & Karns on a number of legal matters over the years. Their skill and expertise is unmatched in my opinion. When my family was the victim of fraud, I turned to the lawyers at Karns & Karns. After a long litigation battle which eventually went to arbitration, I was awarded over $1,500,000.00. The lawyers at Karns & Karns were extremely prepared and I would recommend them to anyone.

I was traumatically injured on the job by a negligent forklift driver. I reached out to Karns & Karns when I began to suspect that my other attorneys didn’t have the expertise to resolve a complicated case where the defendant, a massive organization, said I was at fault. I’m certainly glad I did. Bill and Mike treated me with respect, knew the law, and did exactly what was necessary to make the defendant accept responsibility for their bad acts. I recovered $1,000,000.00, and I have Karns & Karns to thank for that.

I was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident. Bill Karns was with me every step of the way. Even though the other driver said the accident was my fault, I recovered over $1,300,000.00. Mr. Karns was professional, courteous, and skilled. I would recommend him and Karns & Karns to anyone involved in a major personal injury case.

I can personally attest to the fact that Karns & Karns are perhaps the most responsive attorneys in California. To receive the sort of attention that I got from Mike and Bill is noteworthy.

My experience with Karns & Karns is that they truly care. As a disabled veteran, I can’t ask for any better than two top gun lawyers whose main job is to get the best for me and my well-being.
