If you suffered severe injuries in an accident involving a ridesharing service such as Uber or Lyft in Milwaukee, it can be a complex and confusing process to navigate. That’s where a Milwaukee rideshare accident lawyer comes in. Our personal injury law firm represents clients who have been injured in accidents involving Uber or other ridesharing vehicles, and we are here to help you obtain the compensation you deserve.

How Can a Rideshare Accident Lawyer Help Me?

If you’ve been injured in a car accident involving a rideshare, a Milwaukee Uber accident attorney can help you by:

  • Reviewing your case, investigating the car crash, gathering evidence (such as the police report and medical records), and identifying who is at fault
  • Building a strong case, including hiring an accident reconstruction expert if necessary
  • Negotiating insurance claims with multiple insurance companies to pursue fair compensation
  • Filing a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and representing you in court if the other party refuses to settle or disputes the claim
  • Calculating the value of your case, taking into account factors such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering

Who Is Liable in an Uber and Lyft Accident?

Wisconsin law requires transportation network companies (TNCs) and rideshare drivers to have primary auto liability insurance and uninsured motorist insurance policies. After an accident, claims may involve multiple insurers, making the process complicated. Injured victims should seek legal advice from an experienced rideshare accident lawyer to protect their rights and ensure they fully understand their legal options.

Whether the insurer of the ridesharing company is liable for covering your accident depends on the status of the Uber or Lyft driver at the time of the collision. A skilled attorney can help identify liable parties in your case.

Transporting a Passenger

If the accident occurs while the rideshare driver is transporting a passenger, the company’s comprehensive insurance typically provides substantial coverage for injuries and damages incurred.

On the Way to Pick Up a Passenger

When the accident happens as the driver is en route to pick up a passenger, the rideshare company’s insurance may still offer significant coverage for any damages sustained.

Not Picking Up a Passenger

If the drivers of Uber and Lyft vehicles are not in the process of picking up or transporting a passenger, coverage by the ridesharing company’s insurance is usually much more limited, often relying on the rideshare driver’s own personal insurance coverage to take on the burden of providing compensation for damages.

What Compensation Is Available to Rideshare Accident Victims?

Types of Compensation for Ridesharing Crash Injuries in Milwaukee

Victims of an Uber or Lyft accident may pursue compensation for their losses. An experienced Milwaukee rideshare accident attorney can assist in obtaining:

  • Reimbursement for medical bills
  • Compensation for lost wages
  • Payment for pain and suffering
  • Reimbursement for property damage
  • Compensation for any long-term disability or disfigurement
  • A wrongful death settlement

How Much Time Do I Have to File a Case in Wisconsin?

According to Wisconsin law, personal injury victims have three years from the date of the crash to make rideshare accident claims. If you miss this deadline, your case may be dismissed, and you will lose your chance for compensation.
