RIDESHARE ACCIDENT LAW

Uber & Lyft Accident Lawyers in Florida

There is no fee unless we recover compensation on your behalf.

Rideshare accidents are not always handled like regular car crashes. If you were hurt as a passenger, another driver, a cyclist, or a pedestrian, Katz & Associates helps you understand what insurance may apply and what steps should be taken.

Coverage can change depending on whether the driver was offline, waiting for a ride, on the way to a pickup, or carrying a passenger. That makes early claim decisions important.

WHEN COVERAGE CAN CHANGE

Rideshare Claims Are Different From Regular Car Accidents

Uber and Lyft claims may involve multiple insurance layers. The driver’s app status, company policy limits, police reports, witness statements, and crash evidence can all affect what happens next.

After a rideshare crash, it helps to know which policy may apply before you accept an offer or give a recorded statement regarding your personal injury.

WHAT CAN AFFECT THE CLAIM

Important Details in a Rideshare Case

App Status

Coverage may change depending on whether the driver was offline, waiting, heading to a pickup, or on a ride.

Insurance Layers

A rideshare claim may involve the driver’s policy, the company policy, and another vehicle’s insurance.

Multiple Parties

Liability may involve more than one driver or insurer, especially in complex multi-vehicle rideshare crashes.

Coverage, Fault, and Deadlines Can Affect Your Claim

Rideshare claims can move quickly once insurers start asking questions. A few early details can change the direction of the case.

  • Rideshare coverage may change based on the driver’s app status.
  • More than one policy may be involved.
  • Fault is not always as clear as it seems.
  • Filing deadlines and insurance rules can affect your options.

This information is general, not legal advice. Every rideshare crash is different.

Questions Uber & Lyft Crash Victims Ask First

That depends on the driver’s app status, the vehicles involved, and which insurance policies may apply.

Passengers may have a claim even if they did not know which driver caused the crash.

Be careful with recorded statements, broad authorizations, and quick offers before the coverage picture is clear.

App status, crash reports, witness statements, photos, vehicle damage, and medical records can all matter.

Florida gives injured people a limited time to bring many negligence claims, so do not wait to ask about your options.
