⚖️ Legal Information
Rideshare companies generally provide layered insurance coverage that scales with the driver’s app activity — minimal coverage when waiting for a ride request, and up to $1 million once a passenger is matched or being transported. Establishing that status is central to any rideshare claim.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
1Does it matter which rideshare app was involved in my accident?
The core legal issues are similar across platforms, though each company structures its insurance tiers slightly differently. We tailor our investigation to the specific app involved.
2What if I don't know whether the driver was logged into the app?
We can request that information directly from the rideshare company as part of our investigation.
3I was hit by a rideshare vehicle as a pedestrian or another driver — do I have a claim?
Yes, if negligence is proven. Depending on the driver’s app status, the rideshare company’s insurance, the driver’s personal policy, or both may apply.
Not sure whether your crash involved an Uber, a Lyft, or another app-based ride? The legal issues are largely the same: rideshare companies carry layered insurance that depends on what the driver’s app was doing at the time. We sort through it either way.
