Our Attorneys Will Identify and Document Damages After a North Huntingdon Rideshare Crash

When a crash occurs in Pennsylvania, the types of damages you can recover depend on whether you are filing a claim based on your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage or pursuing a fault-based claim. You can file a fault-based claim if:

• You chose full tort coverage, or
• You suffered a serious injury
• You meet another exception to the limited tort laws

A fault-based claim could allow you to secure a payout for damages that include:

• Your to-date and future medical care expenses
• Full income loss
• Loss of future earning capacity, if permanently injured
• Property damage
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Reduced quality of life for lasting impairments
• Wrongful death damages, if a loved one died

We work for a portion of the payout we win in your case. Contact us today to learn more about how this works.

Our North Huntingdon Accident Lawyers Represent All Types of Rideshare Crash Victims

Rideshare crashes happen in many ways and affect several types of victims. Our attorneys know how to build a case based on your accident, regardless of how you were hurt. This could include:

• Passengers in the Uber or Lyft vehicle, who may have access to the rideshare company’s $500,000 liability policy if they can show the driver caused the crash.
• Occupants of other vehicles, who can file a claim depending on what the rideshare driver was doing on the app when the crash occurred.
• Pedestrians and cyclists, who may recover damages if struck by a negligent rideshare driver.

Liability and the available insurance coverage depend on the victim’s no-fault coverage, the severity of their injuries, and the driver’s status at the time of the crash.

We Know How Rideshare Insurance Coverage Works

Insurance coverage for Uber and Lyft is complex. While both rideshare companies provide liability coverage for drivers when they are working, the policy in effect depends on the driver’s app status.

• App Off: The rideshare driver’s personal auto liability insurance applies.
• App On, No Ride Accepted: Limited rideshare coverage applies. This is generally a 50/100/25 policy that is available.
• Ride Accepted (or Rider Onboard): The rideshare company provides at least $500,000 in liability, assuming the rideshare driver is at fault.

Injured rideshare passengers have access to the rideshare’s PIP (Personal Injury Protection) for medical bills, and then can pursue additional compensation through the at-fault party’s insurance.

Our Attorneys Collect Evidence of Fault in Your North Huntingdon Rideshare Collision Case

When we represent a victim hurt by a negligent driver in a rideshare crash, we gather evidence and documentation to show what happened, how it caused injuries, and the damages our client suffered. While each case is different, some types of evidence we commonly need to show fault and liability include:

• Police reports
• Dashcam, traffic, or surveillance footage
• App data showing the driver’s status
• Phone or app records, if distraction is suspected
• Eyewitness statements
• An accident scene survey
• Accident reconstruction analysis
• Toxicology reports for impaired driving cases
• Driver history and prior violations
• Relevant medical records
• Expert testimony

If you have any evidence related to the crash, make sure to let your lawyer know. Our team can also collect any evidence you do not have access to or had trouble getting right after the collision.

Our North Huntingdon Team Only Has a Limited Time to Build Your Rideshare Accident Case

We encourage you to connect with our team as soon as you can after the crash. In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims, including those resulting from rideshare accidents, is set by Pa. C.S.A. § 5524. This statute generally gives you two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, certain exceptions can affect this timeline.

Missing this deadline could jeopardize your right to sue and make it more difficult to negotiate a fair settlement or otherwise recover compensation. It could be impossible to secure the money you need to cover your care costs if you do not act quickly to preserve evidence, file your claims, and ensure you have legal guidance to handle your case. Our team can meet you at home or in the hospital.
