Glossary definitions of common terms used in rideshare injury cases.
In a rideshare case, fault is the party responsible for causing the crash, which may be another driver, the rideshare driver, or a third party depending on the facts.
Rideshare injuries often involve several policies, including the driver’s personal auto insurance, the rideshare company’s coverage, and, where applicable, underinsured or uninsured motorist protection.
