How Do You Know Who’s Liable for Your Car Accident Injury?

Many Uber accident victims wonder about their legal rights when it comes to filing a claim. In Cecilia, the legal theory of negligence usually forms the foundation of cases like these. This is true when the victim sues another party to obtain compensation for car accident losses.

There could be several liable parties in a case where multiple people shared a part in causing the accident. For example, multiple vehicles may have been involved, a badly designed or poorly maintained intersection proved to be dangerous, or some debris may have fallen from a moving truck. In your Cecilia Uber car accident case, the burden of proof lies with the person filing the claim.

Generally, you may have to prove the following legal points:

1. The other party owed the complainant a legal duty to drive responsibly in a reasonably safe vehicle
2. The at-fault party violated that duty (by speeding, running a red light, driving while drunk, etc.)
3. Their violation was the cause of the accident and the injuries you sustained

Under Louisiana law, if all of these things are true in your case, then the at-fault party must compensate you for the harm they’ve done. You don’t have to prove this alone. Our lawyer can help you build a solid case.

Compensating You After an Uber Accident

Uber car accident settlement amounts are wide-ranging, but the circumstances of the case directly influence the settlement. Many factors influence the final compensation sought, such as the degree of injury.

As such, some claims result in thousands of dollars won in compensation; others range to millions of dollars in a settlement or a verdict. Typically, the greater the injury (and its associated costs), the more compensation you should seek in your claim.

Uber Insurance Coverage vs. Personal Insurance Coverage

Insurance plays a significant role in Uber car accident cases. Most car accidents often agree to an amicable out-of-court settlement. Both parties strike a deal and agree that the plaintiff will drop all legal claims against the defendant in exchange for a specified settlement. You may, however, file a lawsuit if you’re unable to reach an agreement.

But in Uber accidents, the liable party depends on one of three stages the Uber Driver may be in at the time of the accident:

• If the driver is off the app, then the at-fault party is liable for the accident.
• If the driver is on the app waiting for a passenger, and they are involved in an accident, then Uber’s insurance may apply if the at-fault party’s insurance does not cover the accident.
• If the driver is on the app and is either picking someone up or dropping someone off, then Uber’s insurance covers the accident.

Can You File a Claim at Any Time?

Keep this in mind: The faster you hire an attorney, the sooner the investigation will start and the stronger your case could be.

The statute of limitations for vehicle accidents in Louisiana is two years under CC 3492. This means you need to file the lawsuit within two years from the accident date if you wish the option to pursue compensation through the courts. Hopefully, your case won’t need to go to trial, but you don’t want to lose that option.

After an accident, there’s a good chance you’ll be easily distracted with everything, from recovery to the medical bills piling up. You shouldn’t have to spend 365 days paying for someone else’s mistakes. Don’t wait another day to get the compensation you deserve.
