Where financial compensation after a Lyft accident comes from will depend in large part on the on-app or off-app status of the rideshare driver. In addition, dealing with the insurance company after an accident will also mean substantial paperwork and ongoing communication.
Getting compensation for your injuries and related expenses after a car accident can be a complex undertaking. Our rideshare accident lawyer can help you navigate the compensation process after an accident. We carefully explain how you or a loved one can recover compensation after an accident under Lyft’s policy agreement. We also explain when your compensation will have to come from the Lyft driver’s policy and how to know which insurance company to pursue.
What Damages Does an Insurance Policy Pay?
The insurance company will cover your economic and non-economic damages for your personal injury case. To ensure your claim is settled for an appropriate amount, we create a detailed itemization of damages and ensure your compensation request is accurate before submitting it to the insurance company. Your checklist will include:
- Current and future medical care
- Current and future loss of income
- Property damage or destruction
- Ongoing pain and suffering
You do not have to struggle to calculate your damages on your own accurately. Our rideshare accident attorney will collect the documents that prove the value of your current expenses. We are also careful and detailed when assigning a value to your future expenses.
Finally, we use your diagnosis and prognosis to assign a value to your non-economic damages. Again, our goal is to ensure your Lyft accident case is valued correctly before we head to the table to negotiate for you.
How does Lyft’s Insurance Policy Work?
Are you ready to seek compensation after being injured by a Lyft driver’s negligence? The insurance policy that covers Lyft drivers and riders may have different types of protection. Our Lyft car accident lawyer will clarify how it works.
What If I Have to Pursue the Driver’s Private Insurance?
If your accident involves a Lyft driver who is off-duty and not signed into the app, you may have to seek compensation from their own insurance provider.
The nuances that determine from whom to seek compensation can be challenging without legal guidance and support. When we represent you, we will clarify the details for you. We also handle the insurance company for you so you can concentrate on getting better, and rest assured that your request is going through the proper channels.
