Forest Hill Uber Accident Lawyer

Recovering financial compensation after an accident with an Uber vehicle can be complex. You do not have to deal with the legal process on your own. Our Forest Hill Uber accident lawyer will handle all the details including making sure you seek damages from the appropriate insurance company. We also ensure your case receives an accurate value before negotiations start.

At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we will explain when to pursue the driver’s private insurance. We also explain when to pursue the rideshare company’s insurance. You can recover damages by proving the at-fault driver’s negligence. We do this for you with evidence and witness statements. Our personal injury lawyers work hard to ensure you receive the best possible result.

Our Uber Accident Attorney in Forest Hills, LA Will Investigate Your Accident

When an Uber driver’s negligence causes an accident, you are entitled to compensation. Our law firm will collect evidence that proves the following elements of negligence:

  • Duty of care
  • Breach of duty
  • Cause of injuries
  • Financial damages

Our investigation will also determine whether you should pursue third-party insurance damages from the driver or the rideshare company. We will help you obtain and complete insurance claim forms via the appropriate insurer.

Our Legal Team Will Decipher Uber’s Insurance Policy

Uber insurance has guidelines in place that explain how and when it covers accidents. Coverage can vary based on the driver’s status on Uber’s app. Per their policies:

  • A driver who is not signed into the app is covered by their own insurance
  • A driver who is signed into the app and waiting for a ride request may also be covered by their own insurer
  • If their insurer denies coverage, Uber provides $50,000/$100,000 in bodily injury protection and $25,000 in property damage 
  • A driver who is enroute to, or transporting, a passenger is covered by Uber’s $1,000,000 third-party liability protection

You do not have to decipher the insurance process on your own. We handle the insurance company for you and ensure the appropriate filing of your claim.

We Work Hard to Build Your Rideshare Accident Case

To build your case, we investigate the cause of your accident and collect evidence, such as your police report and witness statements. We also make sure your case is filed on time. 

We also represent you on a contingency-fee basis, which means you pay no upfront fees and nothing if your case does not result in a financial award. Our team makes your case a priority and ensures the at-fault driver is held accountable for their actions.

Our Uber Accident Lawyer in Forest Hill, LA Will Assess Your Damages

The injuries and property damage that result from a car accident can be costly. The financial responsibility for them should fall to the at-fault driver, not you. When our law firm assesses your damages, we make sure you can recover:

  • Current and future medical bills
  • Current and future lost wages
  • Treatment-related travel expenses
  • Property damage or destruction
  • Diminished property value
  • Physical impairment or disfigurement
  • Ongoing physical pain and suffering
  • Mental and emotional distress
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

At Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers, we work hard to recover all the compensation you are entitled to receive. Our Uber accident lawyer serving Forest Hill will make sure your case is not undervalued or underpaid. 

We Make Sure Your Potential Lawsuit Is Filed on Time

Your Uber accident case will likely be resolved with a settlement versus a lawsuit. We may file a lawsuit on your behalf to protect your right to go to court if a settlement cannot be reached. 

In Louisiana:

  • You typically have up to two years from the date of a car accident to file your personal injury lawsuit, according to CC Art. 3492 
  • You typically have up to two years from the date of a loved one’s demise to file your wrongful death lawsuit, according to CC Art. 2315.2 

Various circumstances of your accident can change the filing deadline. It can be complicated. The best way to ensure the statute of limitations is accurately interpreted is to let us handle it for you and make sure your lawsuit is filed on time, so you do not lose your chance to seek compensation.

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