    Understanding Uber and Lyft Accident Claims in Florida

    Determining who is responsible for your injuries after a rideshare accident can be complicated. Fault depends on several factors, including whether the rideshare driver was actively engaged in a ride at the time of the accident. Our experienced attorneys will carefully examine the circumstances of your accident to determine the appropriate course of action:

    • Accidents Caused by an Uber/Lyft Driver (During a Ride): If the rideshare driver was at fault while you were a passenger or while they were en route to pick up a passenger, their insurance coverage (provided by Uber or Lyft) should cover your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
    • Accidents Caused by Another Driver: If a third-party driver caused the accident, regardless of whether you were a passenger or the rideshare driver, the at-fault driver’s insurance company is responsible for your damages. Our attorneys will pursue all available avenues for recovery.
    • Accidents While the App Is Off: If the rideshare driver was not logged into the app and available for rides at the time of the accident, their personal auto insurance policy applies, and the claim proceeds as a standard car accident claim.
    • Accidents While Waiting for a Ride/Between Rides: Uber and Lyft insurance policies have specific, limited coverage amounts for accidents that occur when a driver is logged into the app but not actively transporting a passenger. These situations can be legally complex. We can help you understand these complexities and fight for your right to fair compensation.

    Our experienced Pensacola Uber and Lyft accident attorneys will thoroughly investigate your accident, gather evidence, interview witnesses, and consult with experts if necessary, to determine who is at fault and to fight for compensation from all responsible parties.
