We provide skilled personal injury representation for victims of rideshare negligence. Contact Brach Eichler Injury Lawyers today to learn more about your rights as a rider in an Uber/Lyft.
Rideshare services, such as Uber and Lyft, have added convenience and brought down the costs of hailing a vehicle to get from point A to point B. Today, for example, rideshare passengers can get to and from Newark Airport for less than half the cost of a traditional taxi, often with much less wait time. But along with the benefits of ride hailing apps have come serious safety concerns and liability issues.
If you are injured in an accident involving a rideshare vehicle, your case may seem clear, but you can draw stiff opposition from a multi-billion-dollar tech giant determined not to accept responsibility for your injuries. Faced with that reality, you need proven legal representation from Brach Eichler Injury Lawyers. Our team of compassionate professionals manages your case with care and aggressively pursues the maximum level of compensation possible under the facts of your accident. Don’t be deterred by the strength of the defendant. Rather, choose a law firm with the determination and resources to take on these Goliaths and win one for David.
Do I Need a Rideshare Accident Lawyer?
If you or a loved one has been injured in a rideshare accident in New Jersey, an attorney can help you and your family recover. Accidents involving rideshare drivers and rideshare companies can be very difficult to resolve. Due to the complicated insurance policies of companies like Uber and Lyft, a rideshare accident victim may find the complex paperwork overwhelming. They may also face low-ball settlement offers that don’t come close to covering all of their medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
Rideshare accidents typically involve at least three insurance agencies: the ridesharing company’s insurance, the rideshare driver’s personal insurance, and the insurers of any other drivers involved. These insurance companies may try to downplay the extent of your injuries or claim that no one was liable.
Because of the insurance and liability issues with rideshare accidents, it can be difficult to recover the compensation you need unless you have the help of a skilled attorney. At Brach Eichler Injury Lawyers, our experienced team of New Jersey rideshare accident lawyers will stand up to these powerful rideshare corporations and ensure your side of the story is heard.
