This was the 1st time I've used Zanes Law. It was a fantastic experience for having to go through a situation most would rather not. The attorney and staff were always available to answer my questions and explained things clearly and were obviously 100% in my corner. My attorney, Jim, was very genuine and made me immediately comfortable when I came in to speak with him about my case. Every case manager I dealt with was patient and helpful. I would definitely return to Zanes should the time ever come again that I need a personal injury firm.

Zanes Law was a terrific legal experience. I first went to a law firm that only wanted me to go to physical therapy and pad the bill, so they could utilize my insurance policy to its capacity. Once I went to Zanes, they were honest, professional and prompt with calls almost once a week. Sometimes I got a call just because we did not have contact for close to two weeks. Some calls were to just ask how I was doing. I also received more money than originally discussed. Great job Zanes Law!!!!! If need be I will use their services again. THANKS

Could Uber or Lyft be Legally Responsible for a Driver’s Mistakes?

If a rideshare driver’s reckless or negligent behavior causes someone to suffer injuries, it can be challenging to determine who might owe damages in a civil claim. Under some circumstances, Uber or Lyft and their insurance companies could be liable for their drivers’ mistakes. Liability is often determined by what the driver was doing at the time of the accident.

If the Driver was Offline

If the Uber/Lyft driver was not logged into the app, a court would likely conclude that the rideshare company bears no liability. In this scenario, a claimant would need to seek damages from the driver and their personal insurance company. If the driver’s insurance company tries to deny coverage on the grounds that the policy excludes commercial activities in Gilbert, a persistent rideshare lawyer could help the claimant fight for their rightful compensation.

If the Driver Was Online but Waiting for a Pickup Request

If a traffic wreck occurs while the driver was logged in but not carrying a passenger, an injured claimant could pursue damages from the insurance companies of both the individual driver and the rideshare company. Uber and Lyft set forth limited liability coverage for their drivers to cover such incidents. A knowledgeable rideshare accident lawyer could explain the limits and help an injured Gilbert resident pursue financial relief for their losses.

If the Driver Had Accepted a Ride or Was Driving a Passenger

If a person is injured while riding in a Lyft or Uber, or if a ridesharing vehicle injures another motorist, passenger, or pedestrian while in service, the carpool company could be responsible for damages under their primary liability insurance coverage.

Unfortunately, big corporations like Uber and Lyft have the resources to fight injured victims and try to deny coverage. Our dedicated attorneys know how to stand up to these companies and could work tirelessly to pursue rightful compensation for claimants in Gilbert.

Call a Gilbert Uber/Lyft Attorney for Legal Support

Trying to recover damages after a rideshare accident is challenging. Multiple parties could be involved, including large corporations with significant legal resources. If you were injured due to a negligent rideshare driver, contact a Gilbert Uber/Lyft lawyer with the skills, determination, and experience to help you recover from your losses. Call our dedicated legal team today for a consultation.
