Morse Uber Accident Lawyer

Getting into an Uber accident can throw your life into a spin, causing much distress. You may be unsure of how to proceed next. If you are the passenger of an Uber vehicle when it wrecks with another vehicle, do you know what your rights are? Do you know which steps to take to recover the damages owed to you from the accident? If not, a Morse Uber accident lawyer can assist you with the process of getting back the money you’ve lost due to the accident. Read on to find out more about pain and suffering damages, too.

Damages Covered in an Uber Accident

Damages can include a range of things that cost you or affect your personal life. From a financial standpoint to your quality of life, all damages have a value. With the aid of a Morse Uber accident lawyer, you can collect the compensation from these damages and injuries.

The physical damages are probably the ones you are most familiar with because they affect you here and now with doctor bills and possibly medical procedures. You also might have to miss work to get your physical injuries taken care of, which is a reminder of the losses you’re enduring. When you don’t have that paycheck coming on a regular basis, it is a big loss to your way of living. These damages are referred to as economic damages because they are monetary losses. You may have other economic damages aside from medical bills and a loss of income. All of these would be included in your claim.

The other damages you have are just as costly, but not in a monetary way. They represent a loss of quality of life. These are your pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of happiness, loss of pleasure, loss of the ability to do certain things (even if only for a time), and loss of consortium. As you can see, these damages may not take money out of your wallet, but they are extremely valuable. How do you put a price on the loss of these things? A Morse Uber accident lawyer will use one of two methods to calculate how much you can collect for these damages.

There is the multiplier method, which consists of adding up all the economic damages and multiplying that number by a multiplier (between 1.5 – 5) that represents the severity of the pain and suffering. Or, the per diem method will be used. This method consists of estimating the number of days you will suffer from the accident and multiplying it by the average amount you earn per day.

A Morse Uber accident lawyer can advise about which method is the best one based on your situation.

About Insurance Coverage for Uber Drivers

An Uber driver is required to carry personal insurance, and they are protected by the Uber organization. According to Uber, the drivers are insured by one of the following companies:

  • Allstate
  • Farmers Insurance
  • Liberty Mutual
  • Progressive

The driver’s coverage takes care of third-party liability, uninsured/underinsured motorist bodily injury, and contingent comprehensive and collision. However, the driver’s coverage may not be adequate to cover the extent of personal injuries you have. A Morse Uber accident lawyer can negotiate fair terms with the insurance companies, ensuring you get a fair settlement from the injuries you’ve incurred.

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

Is There a Statute of Limitations in Louisiana?

Each state has a statute of limitations, or timeframe, to file a personal injury claim. CC Art. 3492 gives claimants in Louisiana two years from the time of the accident to file their claim.

CTA CTA

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

Steps to Take After an Uber Accident

An Uber accident can be stressful and overwhelming, but make sure to be proactive, so you aren’t left unprotected. Following a set of steps can be a roadmap for a successful claim and may help your attorney.

Take Notes About the Incident

Write down notes about the incident while it’s still fresh in your mind. This can help if there are questions about details of the accident.

Take a Few Pictures

You may not need to take pictures in the case of an Uber driver being the one driving, but it never hurts in case there is a dispute about what happened. You might be the only one with pictures of the scene before anything was moved.

Secure a Police Report

A police officer will come out and take a report about the accident. If they ask you any questions, be sure to answer thoroughly and accurately. Then get a copy of the police report when it’s done.

Don’t Neglect a Medical Check-Up

Some people neglect getting checked out because they feel fine. However, you need to make sure you have a professional look you over because you could have internal injuries you don’t see.

Talk to an Attorney

An attorney is a trusted person to talk to at this point in the process. They can honestly assess your case and let you know where you stand.

CTA CTA

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.
