How We Can Help

If you decide to work with us on your case, there are several ways we can help you. Some of them are discussed below:

Investigate the Accident

We will always start by conducting a full investigation on your behalf. We can talk to witnesses who may have been involved in the accident. We can also subpoena documents that we can use to support your case. A full investigation is important because it will provide us with the complete picture.

Hire Expert Witnesses

We can hire expert witnesses to work with us. For example, we may want to reach out to someone who is an expert in accident reconstruction. They may be able to show us what happened at the scene of the collision. Or, we may want to hire medical experts who can testify to the nature of your injuries.

Negotiate With Insurance

We can negotiate with an insurance company if one reaches out to you to offer a settlement. While you can accept a settlement on your own, you need to make sure that you maximize the value of your claim. We understand how much your case is worth.

Pursue Damages

In some situations, your damages may exceed the limit of the insurance company’s liability. If that is the case, we can file a lawsuit against the rideshare company or driver to pursue additional damages on your behalf.

We handle every case individually and will let you know if this is an option. Our goal is to take all of the legal issues off your hands so that you can focus all your energy on your medical recovery. Rely on us to help you.

What to Do After a Dallas Lyft Accident

You might be wondering what to do next if you have been involved in an accident while using a rideshare service. There are several important steps you need to take. They include:

Call 911

There is a good chance that someone else will call 911, but you do not want to assume that the authorities are on the way. Instead, you need to call 911 yourself to ask for the police to come to the accident scene.

You need to have a copy of the accident report because you may have issues filing a claim down the road if there is no accident report.

Speak To the Police

When the police arrive, they are going to ask you what happened. Be honest with the police about what happened in the accident. The only thing you can do is talk to them about how the accident unfolded from your perspective. Try not to worry too much about what everyone else is saying.

See a Doctor

You might feel fine after the accident, but you still need to seek medical care. You never know if serious injuries are underneath the surface, and you need to ensure that all of your injuries are treated appropriately.

When you are done with the appointment, ask the doctor for a copy of your medical records, as you might need them to pursue a claim down the road.

Call Us for a Case Consultation

After you have seen a doctor, reach out to us for a case consultation. You need to make sure that your rights are protected, and we may be able to pursue compensation on your behalf.

Allow us to handle all of the complicated paperwork for you. You need to focus all of your energy on getting better.

Who Pays in a Lyft Accident?

Lyft’s auto insurance will cover the cost of damages under specific circumstances. Though rideshare companies can be infamous for avoiding liability, Lyft will go through their insurer in the following events:

• When the driver is transporting a passenger
• When the driver is waiting for a passenger
• After a driver has dropped off a passenger and is still on the clock.

Lyft will also cover any of the damages done to passengers traveling in a Lyft and anyone who has been involved in an accident with a Lyft affiliate. However, they will not cover medical expenses or property damage of their own drivers.

The Value of Your Claim

In negotiating with the at-fault party’s insurance company, you can expect to have your medical expenses and a portion of your lost wages and property damages covered by the insurer, up to the limits of the insurance policy.

To have the remaining damages recovered, we will most likely need to file a claim against either the Lyft driver or Lyft itself. Some of these damages could include:

• Your pain and suffering
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Loss of companionship and love
• Emotional distress
• Effects of disfigurement, etc.

Your attorney will go over the effects of your injuries from the Lyft accident in great detail to ensure that no stone goes unturned in considering the value of your claim.

FAQs About Lyft Accidents

We will always take the time to answer your questions before we move forward. A few examples of common questions that people ask us include:

Can I Hold the Rideshare Company Responsible for My Injuries?

Yes, there is a chance that we may be able to hold the rideshare company responsible for your injuries. These companies are required to maintain an insurance policy in the event of an accident, and we may be able to use that to help you recover compensation.

How Long Do I Have to File an Accident Claim?

You have two years to file a lawsuit in the local area, so you need to reach out to us to schedule a case consultation as soon as possible. We do not want to miss an opportunity to pursue compensation.

What are a Few Examples of Damages that You Can Pursue on My Behalf?

We can pursue compensation for your property damage, medical expenses, and lost income. In addition, depending on the circumstances of the accident, we may be able to pursue punitive damages against the company as well.

How Long Will it Take You to Finish My Case?

Many factors are involved in how long it will take us to finish your case. There are some situations where we might be able to resolve your case in a few weeks, but if we feel it is better to go to trial, it could take several months to resolve the situation.
