Rideshare Accident Lawyer Granada Hills, CA
Granada Hills and the greater Los Angeles County metro area is one of the largest markets for rideshares. Each year, millions of rides are provided by companies like Lyft, Uber, Alto, and Wings. But, as the number of rideshare vehicles on the road grows, so also do the chances that you’ll end up a victim of an accident involving one. Rideshare drivers run just as much risk as other drivers for getting into a serious collision, usually more, as they have more distractions to contend with. If you were hit by a negligent rideshare driver, whether you were a passenger or the driver of the other vehicle, you have the right to demand compensation not just from the driver but usually from the company they are driving for. An experienced Granada Hills, CA, rideshare accident lawyer can help you secure the money you deserve.
At the Law Offices of Edward Y. Lee, we have long experience handling rideshare accidents. In fact, we were one of the first law firms in the greater LA area to successfully litigate a claim against a national rideshare company. Your case is in good hands with us; call us today to learn more about your rights in a free consultation.
How Can A Granada Hills Uber Accident Attorney Help After A Wreck?
There are complications in rideshare accidents that aren’t present in other types of traffic collision claims. The primary one is the potential involvement of the driver’s rideshare company, which likely may be named as a co-defendant. Companies like Uber and Lyft offer a $1 million insurance policy on drivers when they are transporting a fare. However, this doesn’t always mean you automatically get that $1 million as the accident victim. Rideshare companies (and their lawyers and insurance companies) look for solid proof that their clients caused the accident and are liable for their injuries.
This is why having an experienced attorney develop the case for you is so important. Our legal team includes savvy private investigators who gather the right evidence proving negligence on the part of the rideshare driver. We build our case based on that, using our deep knowledge of California personal injury laws, plus testimony from medical experts who explain how the wreck caused your injuries and vocational experts who testify about how your injuries hindered your ability to work and how you suffered financially because of them. We tie all this together to give us a strong position in negotiations.
If we can’t secure a fair settlement in negotiations, however, we will take your case to court and present it to a judge and jury. We want to ensure that your rights are protected.
