We Help You Get Every Dollar You Deserve.
No Fees Until We Win.
Maximize Your Settlement
Uber and Lyft accidents involve unique insurance complexities. Depending on whether the driver was logged in, en route to a pickup, or carrying a passenger, different levels of coverage apply. Our attorneys understand these policies inside and out and will fight to ensure you receive every dollar you're owed.
Driver's personal insurance applies. We investigate all available coverage to protect you.
Limited rideshare coverage applies. We ensure the full policy is accessed on your behalf.
Full rideshare liability coverage (up to $1M) is in effect. We fight for maximum recovery.
Texting, adjusting navigation, or reaching for items can take eyes off the road and cause serious crashes.
Alcohol, drugs, or fatigue reduce reaction time and judgment, increasing crash risk.
Tailgating, weaving through traffic, and ignoring speed limits cause countless preventable wrecks.
Unsafe driving during rain, fog, or debris on the road can lead to hydroplaning, loss of control, or chain-reaction collisions.
Responsible for negligence such as fatigue, speeding, or impaired driving.
Can be held liable for unsafe policies, training failures, or illegal schedules.
Shops or contractors who fail to properly inspect or repair vehicles.
Liable for defective parts such as brakes, tires, or steering components.
We pursue every recoverable category — not just the obvious bills — so you don’t leave money on the table.
Coverage for emergency care, surgery, hospital bills, physical therapy, and ongoing treatment.
Compensation for time missed from work, loss of future earnings, or reduced earning capacity.
Financial recovery for physical pain, emotional anguish, and loss of quality of life.

Financial support, funeral costs, and justice for families who have lost a loved one due to negligence.

It depends on what 'period' the driver was in at the moment of the crash. Period 0: app off — only the driver's personal auto policy applies. Period 1: app on, waiting for a request — Uber and Lyft carry contingent liability of $50,000/$100,000/$25,000. Period 2 and 3: en route to passenger or with passenger on board — Uber and Lyft provide $1,000,000 in third-party liability coverage plus uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Identifying the period is the first move in any rideshare claim.
As a passenger, you are essentially never at fault. You're entitled to recover under the $1,000,000 commercial policy if your rideshare driver caused the crash, or under the same policy's UM/UIM provision if a third-party driver caused the crash and is uninsured. You don't need to choose between the rideshare driver's policy and another driver's — we sort out the source of recovery.
Yes. While you're an active rideshare passenger or driver in Period 2 or 3, Uber and Lyft's uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage steps in when the at-fault driver has too little insurance — or no insurance — to cover your injuries. Texas does not allow Uber or Lyft to refuse to provide UM/UIM coverage to active rideshare participants.
Two years from the date of the collision under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003. But rideshare cases involve corporate insurance carriers with specific notice and reporting procedures, and the in-app crash report is often used against claimants. Talk to a lawyer before you give a recorded statement to Uber, Lyft, or their carriers.
Contingency fee — no fee unless we win. No up-front cost. Our percentage is disclosed in writing before the case starts and comes out of the settlement or verdict, not your pocket.
