A rideshare accident claim arises when a crash involves a rideshare vehicle—Uber or Lyft—and you suffer injuries or property damage. These cases may involve multiple insurance policies and contract terms between drivers and the rideshare company.
Key elements include establishing fault, gathering evidence, identifying all liable parties, and negotiating with insurers. The process often involves incident reports, medical records, and careful calculation of damages.
Here are common terms explained to help you understand the rideshare claim process.
Liability coverage refers to insurance that may cover injuries and property damage caused by the rideshare driver or company.
Medical Payments Coverage (MedPay) covers medical expenses regardless of fault, up to policy limits.
In California, fault is used to reduce damages. Your compensation may be reduced by your share of fault.
Collect crash reports, photos, medical records, receipts for medical bills, and witness statements to support your claim.
You may pursue quick insurance settlements, demand letters, mediation, or a civil claim, depending on your injuries and coverage.
