Our Experienced Davenport Uber/Lyft Accident Injury Lawyers Are On Your Side
In a Davenport Uber or Lyft accident injury case, it can be difficult to prove who is at fault. Rideshare drivers are typically considered individual contractors, rather than employees of the company, therefore Uber and Lyft cannot be held financially responsible for an accident unless it is discovered that the company itself engaged in negligent behavior. Therefore, the driver is typically found to be the at-fault party.
These drivers are required by Florida law to carry minimum liability insurance coverage in order to pay out any injured accident victims. The coverage usually amounts to $1 million dollars; however, if your injuries are severe, you are entitled to pursue much more than that in a personal injury claim, and you can with the help of our experienced Davenport Uber/Lyft accident injury lawyers.
The Expenses Of An Accident Add Up Quickly
If you’ve been injured in an Uber or Lyft crash, the cost of your injuries can be substantial. Depending on the severity of the crash, you might find yourself responsible for thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars in medical expenses which you likely don’t have lying around in your bank account. From hospital stay, surgery, and X-rays, to medication, physical therapy, and lost wages, you might be facing a significant financial burden. The unfortunate reality is that some of your injuries might not ever heal, leaving you permanently disabled and unable to return to your regular life. This isn’t fair when you aren’t at fault for the accident!
