Uber and Lyft Accident Injury Lawyers Serving Philadelphia & New Jersey

What happens if your Uber gets into an accident?

If your Uber gets into an accident, what happens is that the police investigate for traffic violations. Drivers have the same legal obligations to call the police just as they would if they were in an accident while driving for personal reasons. As an injured victim, you may have several routes to claim compensation. You may bring your case against the Uber driver, the other driver involved or even to Uber itself. What happens if your Uber gets into an accident is that you may take action to claim financial compensation.

What happens if you get in an accident with Lyft?

What happens if you get in an accident with Lyft is that you are protected by Lyft's insurance policy for drivers. If the driver in the other vehicle is at fault, and they are unable to pay you fair compensation, you may recover from Lyft directly. In addition, Lyft may provide compensation when their driver is at fault for the accident. You have the right to take legal action if Lyft doesn't fairly pay you the compensation that you deserve.
