But what many people don’t know is that they need to file a claim with the rideshare application they were using as soon as possible. If you have questions regarding what happened or your experience when using Uber or Lyft, contact Ovadia Law Group at 1-800-674-9396.
These companies have in-depth policies that include a timeline for filing a report and informing them about the incident that occurred. You should inform them as soon as possible following your accident, you could think of it almost like a police report. When you are involved in a car accident, you call the police at the scene, you should contact Uber and Lyft after filing a police report. You should also make sure to file a police report for documentation outside the organization. If you have questions regarding how long you have to file your accident or injury to Uber or Lyft in regard to their policies, contact our team at Ovadia Law Group. We are more than willing to help explain the timeline of reporting these policies to you.
But the drivers may face more punishments due to them being in control of the vehicle and transporting the passenger. The passenger should not feel worried about reporting the incident to Uber or Lyft unless they have contributed to the accident in terms of reckless behavior that distracted the driver.
Both parties should receive medical attention, even if they do not feel injured or see any injuries. It is better to be checked out, especially since adrenaline might be at play. They might not feel their injuries until the next day or a few weeks when the adrenaline wears off, then if they move forward with legal action, it might hurt their case since they did not seek medical attention right after the accident.
After being in an Uber or Lyft accident, you should contact a personal injury lawyer or a car accident lawyer, they will make dealing with insurance companies for these rideshare applications a stress-free process and be there every step of the way.
