How Can a Florida Rideshare Accident Attorney Help Me?

Rideshare cases are different from regular car accidents because liability often depends on whether the driver was logged into the app, actively picking up a rider, or in the middle of a trip with a passenger.

Our firm understands how these complicated insurance layers work and how to identify the responsible parties while making sure you explore all available insurance coverage, including Uber’s or Lyft’s policies, so you don’t miss out on rightful compensation.

A Florida rideshare injury attorney will:

Investigate the rideshare driver’s status at the time of the crash to determine which insurance policy applies, whether it is their personal insurance, Uber’s or Lyft’s limited coverage, or full commercial coverage.
Gather all necessary documentation like app activity records, police reports, medical records, and witness statements, while also checking the driver’s history for past accidents or reckless behavior Uber or Lyft may have ignored.
Handle all communication with the insurance companies so you don’t have to, and protect your case from shifty insurance tactics.
We’re not afraid to take your case to court if it comes to that, and we’ll fight to make sure you’re properly compensated for what you’ve been through.

What Can You Be Compensated for After a Rideshare Accident?

Rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft are backed by massive insurance policies, but that doesn’t mean they’re quick to pay out what your case is truly worth. Whether you were injured as a passenger or struck by a rideshare driver, their insurers may try to downplay your injuries or push a low settlement. At Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia, we fight to uncover every source of available coverage and pursue fair compensation for:

Medical Expenses: Some injuries don’t show up right away. We help you recover compensation for both immediate treatment and future medical care, so you’re covered long after the crash.
Lost Wages:Some injuries make it hard or even impossible to return to work. We pursue compensation for the income you’ve lost and the future earnings you may no longer be able to earn.
Pain and Suffering: A rideshare accident can leave you dealing with chronic pain, sleep issues, depression, anxiety, or a loss of independence. We make sure these real, lasting impacts on your daily life are fully considered in your case.
Loss of Enjoyment of Life: If your injuries limit your ability to enjoy activities you once loved, you may be compensated for that loss.
Wrongful Death: If you lost a loved one in a rideshare accident, we can file a wrongful death claim on your family’s behalf. This may include compensation for funeral costs, lost financial support, and the emotional toll of your loss.

Rideshare accident claims can get complicated fast. Insurance companies may reach out early with friendly questions, but they’re often looking for ways to shift blame or minimize your injuries. You need a legal team that recognizes these moves and fights hard to stand up to Uber, Lyft, and their insurance companies. At Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia, we’re on your side.

As a former member of the US military, specifically special operations, I have been battling the VA for almost 14 years to obtain a 100% rating. Chris Stratton and Melissa Medina were able to get me 100% on the first go around, as my representatives. All I had to do was set the appointment and attend the exam, and they did the rest. I would definitely recommend there dedicated services to our armed forces! Thanks again

I had a hard time writing this review. There is so much I wanted to say. But at the end it comes down to a great attorney Heather Harley. She is what you want and need dealing with the VA.. Attorneys, there are many but few with the compassion and knowledge she has. After many years of not getting anywhere with the VA. she has gotten me to a satisfying outcome. If you are in need of a excellent attorney I recommend Heather Hartley. Once again thank you.

George F.

I was very lucky to find the help I needed at Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia. With the great team of Attorney David Batista, his Paralegal Alyssa Stephens, and assistants Yorman Gascon, Juliana Garcia, and Daniela Mantilla! they were able to get me a settlement that was retroactive. Even though I was not really looking for payment just a better rating in this case I received both. I could not be happier with this outstanding team - they truly understand the rights and fight for the compensation that all veterans deserve.

FAQs

Navigating through filing a claim can be challenging, but the experienced team at Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia is here to provide the guidance and support you need during this complex legal process.

How Long Do I Have to File a Claim After a Rideshare Accident in Florida?

In Florida, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit involving a rideshare crash. This deadline, known as the statute of limitations, applies to Uber and Lyft accidents, including cases involving serious injury or wrongful death. If your accident happened before March 24, 2023, a longer four-year deadline may still apply. But if it occurred on or after that date, the updated two-year limit is in effect. That may sound like plenty of time, but waiting too long can hurt your case, and insurance companies may use the delay to their advantage. The sooner you contact our team, the sooner we can step in to protect your rights and start building your case the right way.

How Much Will It Cost to Hire a Lawyer for My Rideshare Accident Claim?

We know a rideshare accident can leave you with a lot of financial stress. You weren’t the one driving the rideshare; you were just trying to get where you needed to go, or caught off guard by the accident. That’s why we don’t charge anything up front. At Werner, Hoffman, Greig & Garcia, we only get paid if we win your case. You don’t have to worry about legal fees while you’re trying to get back on your feet.

How Much Is My Rideshare Accident Case Worth?

The value of your case depends on many factors, including the severity of your injuries, whether the rideshare driver was fully at-fault for the crash or shares responsibility with another party, and more. However, Uber and Lyft carry substantial insurance policies, with coverage that can go up to $1 million or more, depending on the circumstances of the crash. This is often far more than a personal car insurance policy, giving you a better chance to recover full and fair compensation.

What Should I Do After a Rideshare Accident as a Passenger?

If you’re injured in a rideshare accident, your first step is to get medical help, even if injuries aren’t immediately obvious. Next, document everything: take photos, gather driver and witness info, and get a police report if possible. Most importantly, report the accident to the rideshare company right away through their app or website. This creates an official record, which is crucial for any insurance claims or legal action later on.
