Ridesharing has quickly become a popular form of transportation across the nation. Rideshare companies such as Uber and Lyft make it easier and often more economical to get around town. However, as the usage of Uber and Lyft continues to rise, so does the occurrence of automobile accidents involving these rideshare vehicles. These automobile accident claims can involve more than just a pedestrian, passenger or driver. They also involve the rideshare company itself. With multiple parties involved, it is not always easy to determine which party is entitled to compensation.

We stay updated on the latest legal developments to ensure that our clients receive the most effective representation possible.

Moreover, our attorneys are acutely aware of the various tactics that rideshare companies may employ to minimize their liability. One such strategy involves classifying their drivers as independent contractors rather than employees, thus shielding themselves from direct responsibility for accidents.
