Florida Uber & Lyft Accident Lawyers
Ridesharing has changed the way we travel. Whether you’re catching an Uber to the airport, heading home after a night out, or working as a rideshare driver, the convenience is undeniable. But just like any other vehicle on the road, accidents happen—and when they do, the aftermath can be overwhelming.
At Applebaum Accident Group, we understand the unique challenges that come with Uber and Lyft accident claims. These cases often involve complicated insurance rules, powerful defense attorneys, and injured victims who are left unsure about their rights. That’s where we come in.
Why Uber & Lyft Accidents Are Different
Not every lawyer has the experience—or the willingness—to take on rideshare companies and their insurers. Here’s what sets these cases apart:
-
Bigger insurance policies, tougher fights. Uber and Lyft carry large insurance policies, sometimes up to $1 million. That means their insurance companies fight harder to minimize payouts.
-
Complex coverage rules. The amount of insurance available depends on whether the app was off, the driver was waiting for a ride request, or a passenger was already in the car.
-
Aggressive defense teams. Major insurers like Progressive and State Farm know which law firms are willing to go to court. They treat cases very differently depending on your lawyer’s reputation.
If you were injured in a rideshare accident, you need an attorney who knows how to navigate these challenges and fight for the full value of your claim.
How We Help Rideshare Accident Victims
-
Medical care and bills. After a crash, your health comes first. We’ll help you get proper treatment and work to ensure your medical bills are covered.
-
Personal attention. We’re not a high-volume TV law firm where clients never meet their attorney. Our clients work directly with our team, and we’re always available to answer your questions.
-
Trial-ready representation. Insurance companies know we won’t accept lowball offers. If necessary, we’re ready to take your case to trial to get you the compensation you deserve.
Whether you were a passenger in an Uber, struck by a rideshare driver, or driving for Uber or Lyft when another driver caused your crash, we’re here to protect your rights.
What to Do After an Uber or Lyft Accident
-
Seek medical attention immediately – even if you feel fine. Some injuries appear later.
-
Call 911 so police can file a report, which will help your case.
-
Document everything – take photos of the scene, vehicles, and your injuries if possible.
-
Get driver and witness information.
-
Call an experienced rideshare accident lawyer before speaking with the insurance company.
Do I Risk Losing My Uber or Lyft Account If I File a Claim?
Many passengers and drivers worry that making a claim will cost them their account. That’s not the case. Uber and Lyft carry insurance for exactly this reason. Filing a valid claim will not affect your ability to use the app as a passenger or driver.
