Seeking Compensation in Uber/Lyft Accident Claims

Boca Raton Uber Accident Lawyers

If you’ve been injured in a car accident that was caused by another driver, you would normally seek compensation for your injuries and damages by filing a claim for compensation against the insurance policy of the at-fault driver. However, when that driver is driving for a rideshare company such as Lyft or Uber, you may not be able to obtain compensation from the driver’s personal auto insurance unless he or she has the proper riders attached to his or her policy, since personal auto insurance only covers use of an automobile for personal purposes.

To make sure that injured Uber/Lyft accident victims are not left without compensation, Florida law now requires rideshare drivers or rideshare companies to have certain minimum insurance. This minimum amount depends on the circumstances at the time of the accident:

Frequently Asked Questions about Uber/Lyft Accidents in Boca Raton

How long do I have to file a lawsuit for compensation for injuries and damages that I suffered in my Uber/Lyft accident?

Under Florida’s statute of limitations, you have four years from the date of your accident in which to file a lawsuit to seek compensation for injuries and damages from your accident; this time period might be extended under very limited and unique circumstances. If you fail to file suit before the expiration of the statute of limitations in your case, the court can permanently dismiss your lawsuit and you will lose your right to seek compensation in court.

What happens if I was a passenger in an Uber or Lyft that was hit by another vehicle?

If you were a passenger in a rideshare vehicle that was involved in an accident where a driver other than the rideshare driver was at fault for the collision, you typically will need to pursue a claim for compensation against that driver and his or her insurance coverage. However, rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft are required to provide uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage to passengers, so if the at-fault driver’s insurance coverage isn’t sufficient to pay for your injuries and damages, you may be entitled to turn to the rideshare company’s insurance for coverage.
