Jonathan and his team helped me win my settlement for a very traumatic dog bite case and were very diligent and empathetic with my injuries. Without the WIN team I would not have gotten justice on any level and I’m forever grateful for them! Would recommend highly to anyone needing representation for injuries.

Who is responsible if I’m injured in an Uber or Lyft accident?
Liability can fall on the rideshare driver, another driver, or the rideshare company’s insurance policy, depending on the circumstances of the accident.
Does Uber or Lyft provide insurance for passengers?
Yes. Both companies carry liability insurance that may cover passengers injured during a ride, often up to $1 million, but the coverage depends on whether the driver was logged into the app.
What should I do immediately after a rideshare accident?
Seek medical help, report the accident through the Uber/Lyft app, gather witness contact information, and contact a rideshare accident attorney before speaking with insurers.
Can I sue Uber or Lyft directly?
It depends. These companies classify drivers as independent contractors, which limits direct lawsuits. However, their insurance policies are often available to cover damages.
How much compensation can I recover after a rideshare accident?
Compensation varies but may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care costs, depending on the severity of your injuries.
