Rideshare cases can involve multiple insurance policies and complex liability issues, so it's important to act quickly. At Sam & Ash, we'll help you understand your timeline, preserve critical evidence, and protect your right to full compensation. ## What To Do After After an Uber or Lyft accident, it's important to protect your claim. Rideshare companies and their insurers will work to avoid responsibility, so take these steps: ### Call 911 Responders will secure the area, control the situation, and prepare an official report, ensuring proper documentation for any necessary follow-up. ### Save All Evidence Take photo and video of the scene. Store reports, important items, and any records securely so nothing useful to your case is lost or misplaced. ### Seek Medical Attention A prompt exam can uncover unseen injuries and create important documentation for your claim ### Follow Your Doctor's Instructions Attend all follow-up appointments, complete recommended treatments, and participate in any necessary therapies. ### Report the Accident If the incident occurred in public, notify nearby people, business owners, or file an incident report. ### Contact a Lawyer Do not wait to get the legal advice you need. We can start investigating the accident, preserving evidence, and protecting you from day one. ### Journal Record detailed notes about how the accident occurred and track symptoms, treatments, and recollections related to your recovery process. ### Limit Social Media Refrain from posting about your incident-anything posted online could impact your claim. ![A damaged vehicle on a quiet road, evoking a sense of urgency and the need for legal support.](https://samandashlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/AdobeStock_305906275-1024x683.jpeg) ## Your Claim Is Covered By Uber Or Lyft If You Are: A driver in an accident caused by an Uber or Lyft driver A passenger inside the Uber or Lyft in an accident caused by an Uber or Lyft driver A passenger in the other car in an accident caused by an Uber or Lyft driver A pedestrian or bicyclist injured by an Uber or Lyft driver An Uber or Lyft driver in an accident caused by another driver A passenger inside the Uber or Lyft in an accident caused by an uninsured or underinsured driver ## You May Be Entitled To Maximum Compensation Take this 60-second quiz to get started: "*" indicates required fields ## Answering Your Questions ### Am I eligible to receive compensation from Uber and Lyft? Uber and Lyft will not pay for losses in every accident. As a general rule, they compensate for accidents caused by the rideshare driver. ### How Does Uber and Lyft Pay for My Accident? Whether Uber or Lyft will cover your accident - and how much - depends on what the driver was doing at the time: Driver app is off: The driver's personal insurance applies. Uber and Lyft provide no coverage. Driver is available or waiting for a ride request: The driver's personal insurance applies first. If that is denied or not enough, Uber and Lyft provide up to: $50,000 for bodily injury per person $100,000 for bodily injury per accident $25,000 for property damage > Driver is en route or transporting a passenger: Uber and Lyft provide up to $1 million in third-party liability coverage. This includes uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage and coverage for hit-and-run accidents. ### What is The Driver's Relationship to Uber or Lyft? Uber and Lyft drivers are considered independent contractors, not employees. This means the companies don't have the same legal responsibility as a traditional employer, like a taxi company. In the past, this allowed Uber and Lyft to deny liability when their drivers caused accidents. Many victims were left without enough compensation because the driver's personal insurance didn't cover commercial use. After public backlash, both companies now provide their own insurance coverage to protect passengers, other drivers, and pedestrians when an accident happens. ## Insights & Resources ![Vibrant fireworks light up the night sky in a dazzling celebration.](https://samandashlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/vibrant-fireworks-light-up-the-night-sky-in-a-dazzling-celebration.-6741089-scaled-740x416.jpg) Blog Jul 2nd, 2026 ## July 4th & Beyond: Summer Safety in Las Vegas for Grills, Pools, Fireworks - and the Part Nobody Reads Until It's Too Late [Read More](https://samandashlaw.com/resources/july-4th-beyond-summer-safety-in-las-vegas-for-grills-pools-fireworks-and-the-part-nobody-reads-until-its-too-late/) ![Insurance form with keys, glasses, and paper cutout family symbolizing protection and support.](https://samandashlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/top-view-of-insurance-form-pen-paper-cut-family-2026-03-12-23-51-06-utc-740x416.jpg) Blog Jul 1st, 2026 ## How to Spot a Lowball Insurance Offer (and Exactly What to Do About It) [Read More](https://samandashlaw.com/resources/how-to-spot-a-lowball-insurance-offer-and-exactly-what-to-do-about-it/) ![A line of parked cars symbolizes safety and preparedness, reflecting a commitment to advocacy.](https://samandashlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/cars-740x416.jpg) Blog Jun 29th, 2026 ## Weekly Automobile & Motorcycle Safety Recalls | Jun 29, 2026 [Read More](https://samandashlaw.com/resources/weekly-automobile-motorcycle-safety-recalls-jun-29-2026/) [View More](https://samandashlaw.com/resources/?fc=blog)
