Passenger injuries
You were hurt as an Uber or Lyft passenger — your rideshare company’s policy usually covers you.

Rideshare accident lawyers
Hurt in an Uber or Lyft crash? Rideshare claims have their own rules — call 24/7 to talk to an attorney who handles them.
Rideshare accidents sit at the intersection of personal auto insurance and the rideshare company’s commercial policy. Which coverage applies depends on whether the driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride, or actively carrying a passenger.
An attorney familiar with rideshare claims will sort this out. Call Personal Injury Legal Centers to be matched with one.

Questions
Rideshare questions
Who pays — and when each policy kicks in.
Whose insurance covers a rideshare crash?
It depends on the driver’s status at the time. App off: the driver’s personal auto policy. App on, waiting for a ride: limited rideshare coverage. App on, carrying a passenger: the full rideshare policy (typically $1M). An attorney sorts this out.
Can I sue Uber or Lyft directly?
Usually the claim is against the rideshare company’s insurance policy, not the company itself. The practical effect is similar — an attorney files the claim and negotiates.
I was the driver. Am I covered?
Often, yes — through the rideshare company’s policy while you were on the app. An attorney can review your coverage and the facts of the crash.
