Who pays when your driver causes a serious Pennsylvania Uber accident?
Are you:
If you suffered injuries in a Pennsylvania Uber accident, you deserve compensation. But, getting fair compensation for an Uber accident isn’t easy. Our Uber accident lawyers are here to help.
Taxi cabs have licenses through the state. The drivers and the vehicles owners must meet all state and local insurance requirements. If there is an accident, laws specific to taxi cabs determine liability.
Uber and Lyft are not taxi cab services. The vehicles belong to the drivers, not the company. And although Uber and Lyft carry insurance, the drivers must carry personal vehicle insurance to guarantee coverage for all accidents. Yet, the rules determining liability are unclear. In many cases, the company insurance is secondary to the driver’s personal vehicle insurance. And in some cases, there is no insurance coverage at all.
Like most big companies, Uber wants to make a profit. Paying for accident claims reduces profits, so Uber uses several “tricks” to avoid paying victims of Uber accidents.
You choose Uber because they promise a safe ride. But these tactics transfer Uber’s responsibility for your safety to the driver. This makes it difficult for victims of Uber accidents to get compensation from the company. And it hurts Uber accident victims because many drivers have limited insurance coverage. This is unfair.
If you were a passenger, driver or pedestrian in an accident involving Uber, you may be eligible for compensation from both the driver’s insurance company and from Uber’s additional policy. It’s not easy to get compensation, but Jon Ostroff and the team at Ostroff Injury Law have stood up to the big insurance companies for more than 20 years. We have the skills and experience needed to face Uber and get you the compensation you deserve.
When you sustain injuries, you deserve fair compensation. Attorney Jon Ostroff will evaluate your case and explain your rights. Call our Uber accident lawyers at 800-818-8148 to schedule your free consultation.
