Rideshare Accident Lawyer Westchester, CA
Rideshare drivers face more distractions behind the wheel than many other motorists, which increases the likelihood of causing a crash. Your Uber or Lyft driver may be focusing too much on GPS navigation while driving in an unfamiliar area to pay attention to the traffic and road around them, and crash into another vehicle. It’s also easy for a rideshare driver to become distracted by difficult passengers or even search for their next ride instead of paying attention to the road. The injuries you suffer in a collision, whether you were another driver or a rideshare passenger, can be serious and affect every part of your life.
You have the right to pursue fair compensation from the rideshare driver who caused the crash, including coverage for your medical expenses, property damage (such as a totaled vehicle), and other related losses. You may also seek compensation for the pain, suffering, and emotional trauma you endured. Our Westchester rideshare accident lawyer is ready to help you move forward with your claim and to handle all matters required to get you the fair settlement you deserve.
We investigate what caused the accident, working alongside transportation experts to develop a strong case. In some situations, we may also hold the rideshare company responsible for its driver’s actions; both Uber and Lyft provide insurance coverage of up to $1 million for their drivers, and we fight for every penny you deserve. Our lawyers are frequently able to reach a fair settlement through negotiations outside of court, but we prepare every case as if it will go to trial.
