Types of Rideshare Cases We Handle

There are different scenarios that can lead to rideshare collisions, injuries, and legal complications. At Schwed, Adams & McGinley, we handle a wide range of rideshare accident cases, including the following.

Injuries to Rideshare Passengers

When a rideshare vehicle crashes, Uber or Lyft passengers often sustain injuries. Whether the rideshare driver or another driver was to blame, passengers deserve full compensation. Our team of dedicated attorneys is well-versed in handling cases where the rideshare passenger seeks recovery for their medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering from various insurance sources.

Injuries to Occupants of Other Vehicles

Rideshare accidents can also involve Uber or Lyft drivers hitting other vehicles on the road, causing injuries to people who are not using rideshare services at the time. If you were in another car, determining insurance liability is often complicated. Our attorneys regularly represent individuals injured in collisions with rideshare vehicles.

Injuries to Pedestrians or Cyclists

Pedestrians and cyclists can also get hit by rideshare drivers, which can result in catastrophic injuries. Our team understands the unique challenges involved in representing pedestrians and cyclists injured by rideshare drivers.

Rideshare Cases Can Be More Challenging Than Other Crashes

Rideshare accidents present unique challenges compared to traditional car accidents, primarily due to the involvement of large corporations and complicated liability issues. When you are involved in a rideshare accident, you may face the following challenges, among others.

Liability and Insurance Questions

Liability for a rideshare accident often involves multiple parties, including the rideshare company, the rideshare driver, or negligent third-party drivers.

Our attorneys investigate who was to blame and settle liability issues to ensure you seek compensation from the proper channels.

Going Up Against Large Corporations

The law requires rideshare companies to provide insurance coverage for injuries caused by drivers under certain circumstances. This is important, as Uber and Lyft have greater coverage than individual drivers. However, they also have extensive resources and legal teams dedicated to minimizing their liability in accidents. To level the playing field, you need a reputable and trial-ready team of attorneys who are not afraid to take on these large corporations in court. Our attorneys at Schwed, Adams & McGinley have the litigation experience and determination to fight for your rights against these powerful entities.
