Rideshare Accident Lawyers in Connecticut

Injured While Riding in an Uber or Lyft?

Rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft have hired millions of drivers throughout the US, and most of these drivers use their personal vehicle when on the job. However, since most consumer insurance policies exclude coverage when a vehicle is being using as a private livery service, rideshare companies must provide their own coverage to their drivers. If you are injured in an accident caused by a rideshare driver or as a passenger in one of these vehicles, it is important to know the coverage options available to you. For more than 65 years, the attorneys at RisCassi & Davis, P.C. have been assisting those injured in car accidents of every variety.

What Should You Do If You Get In an Accident With Your Rideshare Driver?

Important things to remember immediately after a crash:

  • Call 911, and then take pictures of the wreck
  • Write down names, email addresses, and phone numbers of any witnesses
  • Write down the name of the driver if it’s not already in your phone
  • Take screenshots of your Uber ride and receipt on your phone
  • Contact a qualified rideshare accident attorney in Connecticut
