Negligent Rideshare Drivers Can Afford to Pay for Your Losses 

You can demand the fairest settlements when settling a rideshare accident injury claim with companies like Uber and Lyft. Even if the driver was not logged into the app at the time, they must still possess a personal insurance policy. As such, you most likely have more options than you realize when it comes to getting the outcome you want or deserve. 

Under NY Transportation Network Company Service Law § 1693, Uber, Lyft, and rideshare drivers in general require the following insurance limits: 

• Logged into the app, taking new clients: At least $50,000/passenger and $100,000/occurrence provided by the rideshare company 
• Trip accepted and at time of drop off: At least $1,000,000/trip provided by the rideshare company 
• Driver not logged into the app: Subject to the driver’s personal motor vehicle insurance policy limits

Masure understands the intricate complexities and nuances of rideshare accident claims against drivers, Uber/Lyft, insurers, and other liable third parties. Whether you were a passenger, bystander, or other motorist, our Brooklyn Uber and Lyft accident lawyer will help you sort out the details of liability, negligence, and damages so that you can focus on your health and well-being.

You Deserve a Fair Settlement Under New York Law 

The devil is in the details when it comes to determining the fairness of a rideshare settlement since several rules and statutes apply. For instance, under New York Insurance Law § 2601, insurers must “effectuate prompt, fair and equitable settlements” to people with reasonable claims. However, this law also requires you to prove that you have a reasonable claim during negotiations if your expectations differ from the insurance company’s opinion. 

If their facts are incorrect or they miscalculate your damages, you may want to hire our Brooklyn Uber and Lyft accident lawyer to help you obtain civil justice that affords you: 

• Medical expenses: Emergency room visits, ambulance rides, prescription drug costs, follow-up visits, physical therapy, future medical care, surgeries, prosthetics, medical devices, and other medical expenses 
• Lost wages and benefits: Personal time off used, lost retirement benefits, and future lost earning capacity 
• Pain and suffering: For mental anguish suffered, lost enjoyment of life, loss of consortium, and embarrassment
• Punitive damages: For grossly negligent accidents and are rarely ever awarded 
• Wrongful death awards: For surviving family members affected by the loss of life 
• Survival action awards: For the estate after a wrongful death based on the damages incurred after the accident and before the time of death 
• Unfair practices claims: Compensates you if the insurance company engages in unfair settlement practices that cause you harm throughout the process 
• Other recoverable losses: Accessibility modifications to your home and car, filing fees, and other recoverable losses afforded to you under New York State law 

The Law Offices of Frederic S. Masure will help you investigate, document, and negotiate a fair settlement equivalent to your losses under civil law. If liable parties continue to dodge the facts, count on us to take your case to trial if necessary and at your discretion.
