What to do after a rideshare crashes injury
- Get medical care first.
- Screenshot the trip in the app — receipt, driver, time, route.
- Get the driver's name, plate, and personal insurance information.
- Report the crash inside the rideshare app.
- Talk to a lawyer before agreeing to anything with any insurer.
Why hire a lawyer for a rideshare crashes case?
Rideshare insurers are skilled at pushing the claim to the driver's personal insurance, which often denies coverage for commercial use. A lawyer figures out which policy is on the hook and forces it to respond.
Common injuries we see
- Whiplash and neck injuries
- Knee and back injuries
- Concussions
- Fractures
- Internal injuries
What you can recover
Medical care, lost wages, pain and suffering, and where applicable, claims against multiple coverages — driver, rideshare company, and other involved vehicles.
Florida & Georgia law that affects your case
Florida and Georgia requires rideshare drivers and the companies to maintain specific liability and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage during active rides. Coverage limits change based on driver status at the time of the crash.
Insurance company tactics to watch for
- Bouncing the claim between the driver's personal insurer and the rideshare company's insurer.
- Disputing whether the trip was 'active' to avoid the higher-limit policy.
How our process works
