Rideshare Accident Attorney in Lexington

Rideshare accident cases differ from regular vehicle accidents due to the involvement of rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft. These companies often have extensive insurance policies that come into play during an accident. Both Uber and Lyft have liability insurance of up to $1 million each.

However, proving liability adds a layer of complexity to the claims process. This process usually involves understanding the driver's status with the app at the time of the accident. Additionally, the legal status of rideshare drivers as independent contractors, not employees, can further complicate matters, affecting how claims and liability play out in such a case.
