Lyft Accident Attorney
Lyft Accident Attorney Los Angeles, CA
As the number of Lyft drivers in LA grows, so does the risk that you’ll be hit by one. If you are a Lyft passenger and your driver gets into a wreck, you could be entitled to compensation for your injuries and other losses, just as a driver hit by a Lyft driver would be. Whether you are an injured passenger or the driver struck by the Lyft vehicle, our Los Angeles, CA Lyft accident lawyer from our firm can help you. We address the legal matters of proving liability in a vehicle collision, including any vicarious liability on the part of Lyft, and fighting for the highest possible settlement of your claim.
Lyft accidents have complications that collision claims between two private drivers do not. Getting your fair share of the 41 million liability policy that Lyft extends to drivers is challenging. Companies aren’t in the business of simply handling very large settlements. When you work with Choulos & Tsoi Law Firm, you benefit from our three decades of experience litigating car accident claims and our practical knowledge of California’s ever-evolving rideshare liability laws. Call us today for a free consultation.
Lyft Accidents are Complex – Don’t Go It Alone
Depending on the situation, a Lyft driver may be considered a private driver, covered by the $1 million Lyft policy, or covered by a lesser liability policy issued by Lyft if they’re logged into the app but not carrying a passenger. As your Los Angeles Lyft accident lawyer, our first step is ascertaining what the driver was doing when the wreck happened. This is part of our evidence-gathering process, as we start building a case of negligence against the Lyft driver. Our firm has extensive resources to litigate complex third-party liability claims like these and the skills to build a case against a powerful national corporation.
You may have sustained serious injuries and could spend weeks out of work recuperating. You’re entitled to demand compensation for current and future medical needs, lost wages, and property damage, such as repairing or replacing your vehicle. As a passenger you’re entitled to claim the same type of out-of-pocket damages; passengers and drivers both may also seek compensation for emotional trauma and pain and suffering.
We employ experts to testify about your injuries and what treatment you need (plus vocational experts who explain the impact your injury had on your job and ability to earn a living).
Do You Need an Attorney After a Lyft Crash?
Many people feel overwhelmed after getting into a Lyft accident. You may have multiple phone calls from Lyft, its lawyers, and its insurance company, pressuring you to settle fast. Believe us, any settlement the company offers is likely far less than your case is worth. You stand a better chance of securing full compensation for all your losses, including intangible ones, with the help of our Los Angeles Lyft accident lawyer.
When you work with Choulos & Tsoi Law Firm, you benefit from our experience, strong track record of success in and out of court, and negotiation skills. We focus on your needs, protect your rights, and handle all aspects of your Lyft accident claim, whether you were the other driver or a passenger. Call us today for a free consultation.
