With the rising popularity of rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft, people often ask us, “If I was injured as a passenger of a rideshare, do I have a claim?” The answer is typically yes. As a passenger, you usually do not bear much if any of the fault in the crash. Therefore, you would have a claim against either the driver of the rideshare or the other driver of the vehicle that you collided with.
It’s important that you hire an attorney who understands how to handle a claim when you have been injured in a rideshare.
