Egan Uber Accident Lawyer

The injuries caused by Uber accidents can be catastrophic, leaving both the victims and their family members in immense pain and suffering. However, it doesn’t have to be all sorrows; with the help of our Eagan Uber accident lawyer, you can recover compensation that will keep you going through the hard times. Your lawyer will also manage all of the legal work while you focus on your recovery.

Why Is an Uber Accident Claim Different?

Car crashes involving rideshare service providers such as Uber vehicles are different from those involving regular vehicles. As you may be aware, Uber does not own a single car that you see on our roads; the cars are individually owned. 

An Uber driver may have personal auto insurance, but when actively on duty for Uber, they are insured by the rideshare company.

Generally, accidents involving Uber and other ridesharing vehicles are complicated because of the multiple parties that might be liable.

Who Is Liable for My Uber Accident?

Determining liability in an Uber accident claim can be difficult. Nevertheless, some parties must pin on responsibility if you are to succeed in your quest for justice. Pending investigations, the following might all be liable for your Eagan Uber accident:

Uber’s Insurance Company

If your Uber driver was at fault for your accident, the Uber company might compensate you through its insurance company. There are many procedures and limitations for this, though. For instance, as the passenger, you can only be compensated by them if your Uber driver was actively logged in to the system and was registered as “on duty.”

Since the vehicles operating for Uber are personal cars, drivers can check-in and out of the Uber system when they want. So, if an accident occurred when the driver was logged off, the company could challenge your claim, and you may have to pursue a claim with the driver’s insurance company. Or, you could sue them if they are uninsured.

The Driver’s Insurance Company

Assuming going after Uber itself is not an option, you can go after your driver’s insurance company. They may be able to fully compensate you for your injuries and other damages.

Filing an Eagan Uber Accident Lawsuit

Depending on the extent of your injuries and the financial capability of the driver, you can file an Eagan Uber accident lawsuit. Upon trial, the jury will decide how much money the defendant will have to pay you for the damages incurred. 

If the driver does not have the financial capability to compensate you, you might as well save yourself from a lot of trouble that may not be worth it in the end. It is worth looking to your own insurance company to see if they can cover your damages.

I thank God for Digger & David. I don’t know what we would have done if it hadn’t have been for them.

What to Do After an Acadia Parish Uber Accident

After an Eagan Uber accident, the first thing to do is call both an ambulance and the police. Finding immediate medical care allows you to recover fully in time to tackle your issues. 

The police, on their part, will survey the scene of the accident while writing a report of what happened. These reports are crucial because they highlight who was at fault and by what percentage.

Evidence collection is essential in determining liability. If you are not severely injured, you can take pictures and videos of the accident’s scene and keep them for future reference. Also, collect the contact details of all the parties involved, including the eyewitnesses. Information to compile includes their phone numbers, physical address, and license number.

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.

Do I Need a Lawyer from Your Firm?

While getting legal counsel is not mandatory by law, it is almost an unwritten law for people serious about recovering their compensation from personal injuries. There are many things that our lawyers can help you with, including:

Helping You Prove Liability

The process involved in an Uber accident claim is unimaginable. You could use someone who is experienced and has the resources to follow leads and gather evidence that implicates another party that would be responsible for paying for your damages. An attorney also has the right influence and aura to get you what you need, especially in tight situations.

Representing You in Negotiations and Trial

Negotiations between you and the liable party’s representatives can sometimes be long and hectic. Given that you might still be recovering from your injuries, you may not be in a position to listen to the offers and make the correct decision. An Eagan Uber accident lawyer from our firm can help you with this because they do it for a living.

Informing You about the Progress of Your Uber Accident Claim

After being involved in such an accident, it is normal for us to have anxiety issues. You might be wondering what the progress of your case is and how much you are likely to recover. To help you remain in the loop about everything going on with your case, it helps to have a lawyer from our firm who is aware of the legal jargon and processes.

They treated us like no other people would. Whenever we needed something they were there for us. I put my trust in them and I don’t regret it.
