For a Firm That Understands the Unique Aspects of Uber Accident Cases, Hire Legal Fighters

Uber accidents are relatively common, as rideshare services can increase traffic by up to 8.5 percent, depending on the time and day. However, the fact that Uber accidents happen fairly regularly does not mean that getting justice for victims is easy.

The first Uber trip took place in 2010, and since then, Legal Fighters has monitored the needs of victims injured in ridesharing accidents. This includes:

  • Passengers
  • Motorists hit by Uber drivers
  • Uber drivers
  • Pedestrians, bicyclists, and scooter riders  hit by Uber drivers
  • Those affected by fatal accidents involving Uber drivers

Because we have represented Uber accident victims from the earliest days of ridesharing in the United States, we know that these cases can be complicated by:

  • Uber’s conditional insurance coverages: While Uber provides its contractors with auto insurance coverage, this coverage is conditional. An Uber driver has far less coverage when they are waiting for a rider than when a passenger is in the vehicle. Understanding what Uber-provided coverage is available to you can be a more complicated task than it might seem.
  • The resources that Uber and its insurance providers possess: If we end up seeking compensation from Uber’s insurance provider or suing Uber itself, we expect a fight. Both major auto insurance companies and Uber are multi-billion-dollar entities, and they can be intimidating opponents when they decide to fight claims and lawsuits—which they generally do.
  • The possible need to prove Uber’s negligence: While Uber is often protected by its insurance policies, there are cases when suing Uber is the appropriate course of action. If this is true of your case, we may need to obtain records from Uber, and this will likely require taking legal measures to secure those records (and any other documentation that can benefit your case).
  • The same type of bad-faith tactics that insurers use in many traffic accident cases: Despite the fact that most traffic accident cases eventually reach a settlement, insurance companies often place many roadblocks in front of claimants. From unfair denials to lowball settlement offers and challenges to claimants’ valuation of losses, we are never surprised when insurers act in bad faith. We’re ready for any such tactics. 

We don’t bring up these potential challenges to discourage you. If suffered an injury in an Uber accident in Los Angeles, your only choice is to demand fair compensation. You should always hire an attorney from our firm to fight for you. Don’t simply assume you’ll receive fair compensation without fighting for it. 

Why Our Firm Is Worthy of Leading Your Los Angeles Uber Accident Case

You should have every reason to be confident in your lawyer. That’s why you should choose your Los Angeles Uber accident lawyer from Legal Fighters.

You are in capable hands with our firm leading your case because:

Our Firm Has Won More Than $2.5 Billion for Deserving Clients

If you look into the results that competing law firms have obtained for clients, you’ll find few—if any—that can claim more than $2.5 billion. Some of our most notable individual recoveries include settlements and verdicts of:

  • $1.8 billion, which we achieved in collaboration with legal partners
  • $47 million, which we recovered in a California car accident case (which may include circumstances similar to yours)
  • $27 million
  • $12 million in a personal injury case

These are just a few of the many large recoveries Legal Fighters have achieved for our clients. Such a substantial history of life-changing results is not possible without an uncommon work ethic, aggressiveness, and willingness to put the client’s needs above all else.

We Don’t Back Down from Insurance Companies, Uber, or Any Other Liable Parties

If someone tells you it’s easy to consistently secure fair compensation from insurance companies or organizations the size of Uber, they’re not being straight with you. The truth is that:

  • Insurance companies have significant resources: Large auto insurance companies are multi-billion-dollar entities. These companies are measured by growth, so their never-ending mission is to make more money than they lose (with losses including payouts to claimants). You can reasonably expect any liable insurance company to use its many available resources to fight your claim.
  • Insurers often handle claims in bad faith: Some ways that insurance companies fight Uber accident claims are by denying claims, offering lowball settlements, and contesting the cost of the accident victim’s losses. If we face such tactics, your attorney will navigate them and persist in our settlement demands.
  • Organizations like Uber have lawyers at their beck and call: Uber has earned as much as $1.4 billion in a single quarter of a year. This is a massive organization with immense financial resources, and it can use those resources to fight lawsuits. If you ultimately sue Uber for accident-related damages, we’ll be surprised if the company does not fight your case.

These are not reasons to lie down and accept a lowball settlement. These are merely reasons why a Los Angeles Uber accident attorney from Legal Fighters is a logical partner for you. Our lawyers have the legal knowledge, experience dealing with large insurers and defendants, and resources to pursue a strong case on your behalf.

Our Clients Are Everything to Our Firm, So We Treat Them with Care and Attention

  • Receiving frequent updates from our team, who will actively monitor your recovery, alert you immediately when notable developments happen, and just reach out to maintain lines of communication

Being a client with Legal Fighters means being family. We bring a warmth to our representation that sticks with our clients, while we bring an aggressiveness to the case work that yields significant results.

Call Legal Fighters today at (888) 586-4957 to complete your free consultation. You won’t have any obligation to hire our firm just because you complete a consultation, so there is absolutely no pressure or risk in calling.

We Will Explain Your Insurance Options—This Can Be a Complicated Aspect of Rideshare Accident Cases

Whenever we handle a traffic accident case, the first option we typically consider is insurance coverage. We hold this view because:

  • Uber drivers are insured in the vast majority of cases, as it’s a condition of being a contractor with Uber
  • Between the Uber driver’s personal insurance (and the personal insurance of anyone else who causes an accident) and the insurance Uber offers its drivers, there is often enough coverage for the victim to receive fair compensation
  • Securing an insurance settlement is generally the most efficient and cost-effective way to secure compensation for the victim of an Uber accident

Negotiating an insurance settlement is not our only option, but it’s an option we will likely consider. Depending on the details of your accident, we may seek compensation from:

  • An Uber driver’s personal insurance provider
  • The insurance provider for Uber
  • Your insurance provider
  • The auto insurance provider for any pedestrian who contributed to your accident

Our lawyers will examine all policies that can apply to your losses. We will also oversee every step of any claims process we pursue as part of your case in Los Angeles.

Our Los Angeles Uber Accident Lawyers Will Create a Personalized Case Plan for You

Evaluating your insurance-specific options is just one of many duties Legal Fighters will fulfill for you. We will design a personalized case plan, review the plan with you, then put that plan into action.

Some steps we frequently fulfill on behalf of Uber accident victims include:

Determining and Documenting Fault for the Uber Accident

Establishing who caused an accident is a critical early step in Uber accident cases. From witness testimony to video and photographs, we will secure all evidence that helps us show who caused your accident.

Documenting Recoverable Damages

We will show who caused the accident, then we’ll show what that person’s negligence has cost you. Some documentation we often use to prove the cost of Uber accidents includes:

  • All medical records detailing accident-related injuries
  • Bank statements showing a decline in income after an accident
  • Expert testimony about injuries, pain and suffering, and economic losses
  • Invoices related to vehicle repairs

We tailor our collection of documentation to each client’s unique damages.

Leading the Insurance Process (and Dealing with Insurers)

Your LA Uber accident lawyer will handle all communications with insurance companies. From responding to settlement offers to providing documentation of your losses, we’ll represent you whenever an insurer is involved.

We will also negotiate your insurance settlement if negotiating with an insurer is appropriate in your case.

Filing Lawsuits and Fighting in Court When Uber Accident Victims Need Us To

Not every Uber accident settles. Some require the victim to file a lawsuit, and a smaller percentage require the victim to have a lawyer fight for them at trial. If your case falls in either of these categories, Legal Fighters will navigate the legal process for you.

Damages We Often Include in Our Uber Accident Cases

Our attorneys will account for the entire cost of your accident in Los Angeles, which may include:

  • Medical costs
  • Pain and suffering
  • Vehicle repair costs
  • Other property costs
  • Lost income

We consider the unique wrinkles that exist in each case, such as disabling injuries and severe trauma.
