Pursuing Compensation After A Rideshare Accident
Rideshare accidents can lead to more complications in the claims process than other automotive accidents. Our North Carolina rideshare accident lawyer has the specialized knowledge and experience necessary to help you pursue compensation with clarity and confidence. In the state of North Carolina, the standard auto insurance policy does not include liability coverage for drivers that were using their vehicle to transport passengers for a fee at the time of the accident. While this may preclude you from filing a claim through the driver’s insurance policy, our attorney may be able to help you file a claim through Uber or Lyft’s insurance policy.
Uber and Lyft carry insurance policies for cases such as these, but their legal teams will often attempt to absolve them of liability. Oftentimes, they claim that they are not liable for the accident since they designate their drivers as contract workers rather than employees. Our attorney will fight hard, gather evidence, and help you prove liability in the at-fault party so that you can pursue the compensation you deserve.
The amount of compensation that you can recover after a rideshare accident will differ based on the specific details of your case. Compensation is designed to help you offset your losses and recover to the fullest extent possible after an accident. This often includes payment for losses such as medical bills and expenses, rehabilitation and therapy, lost wages, property damage, vehicle repair or replacement if necessary, pain and suffering, emotional anguish, and potential punitive damages in especially egregious cases. Our North Carolina rideshare accident lawyer will help you determine the full extent of your losses in order to ensure that you are pursuing the compensation that you deserve and need.
