Uber, and other rideshare services, are convenient, usually safe, and increasingly common ways to get around. However, like any other car on the road, an Uber driver runs just as much risk as any other vehicle of getting into a serious collision. Whether you were a passenger riding in an Uber when the wreck occurred or you were the other driver hit by an Uber vehicle, the help and advice of an experienced Gilroy, CA, Uber accident lawyer can help better your chances of securing a full recovery of all your losses.

Uber accidents carry more complications than a wreck between two private drivers. The success of your claim often rests on the experience and knowledge of the attorneys representing you.

How Does A Gilroy Uber Accident Lawyer Help My Case?

Getting the compensation you need to cover your post-crash medical care, repair or replace a damaged vehicle, and replenish lost wages from time missed at work can be more complicated than you think. Depending on what the Uber driver was doing at the time of the crash (transporting a fare, waiting for someone to book a ride, or operating as a private driver), you may be covered under Uber’s $1 million liability policy.

Uber isn’t just going to hand over a million dollars, though. You need a strong team of attorneys to build your case, properly value your claim (if your injuries are mild to moderate, your case may not reach a $1 million value, although we strive for the maximum compensation available to you), and take the reins in negotiations and litigation. We gather evidence to prove that the other party was negligent and caused the accident, and we can even represent your cause in communications with Uber, their lawyers, and their insurance company. This way, you can focus on your healing, and the insurance company cannot twist what you say into an admission of liability.

Why Are Uber Accident Claims So Complex?

One reason Uber accident claims can get complex is that, depending on the situation, your lawyer could be facing not just another driver but the Uber company itself in court. Preparing a case against multiple defendants takes resources and dedication, and we deliver that.

If the driver isn’t logged into the app and not taking fares, they would be considered a private driver, just like you. In that case, their own insurance policy covers any damage they do.

If you are an Uber passenger and your driver gets into a wreck, you may be entitled to compensation no matter who caused the wreck. We sift through the complexities of your case to build a strong claim on your behalf.
