Why Do I Need an Attorney After an Uber Accident?
3 Steps a Good Lawyer Can Take on Your Behalf
Rideshare companies like Uber may be the best innovation of the last 10 years. They help people who don’t have cars or can’t afford car insurance get around and can even prevent drunk driving (particularly during the holidays). That said, those conveniences come with a few cons, like inexperienced or overworked drivers. Many rideshare drivers are on the road so much that their risk of getting into an accident is higher than the average person’s — a frightening prospect for passengers. If you’re involved in an accident while riding with Uber, you may have no idea what caused the accident and be entirely at the mercy of the Uber driver. That’s why it’s a good idea to contact an experienced personal injury attorney immediately after your crash. They’ll pursue the necessary parties to make sure you get the compensation you deserve. Specifically, they’ll take these three steps on your behalf if necessary:
1. They’ll deal with your insurance company.
If you’re injured in an Uber accident, you’ll need to file an accident claim against the Uber driver’s policy. If their policy doesn’t cover all of your damages, you may have to file a claim against the corporate policy as well. You’ll receive a check quickly if it’s approved, but if it’s denied, you many need to file an appeal. A good lawyer can guide you through that process and ensure it goes smoothly.

2. They’ll file suit.

If the Uber driver’s insurance company won’t pay your claim, you’ll have no choice but to file suit. Your lawyer can handle this for you, too. In order to prove the Uber driver was responsible, you’ll have to demonstrate that they were negligent. Because North Carolina is a contributory negligence state, if you were partially at fault, your damages could be reduced. Your attorney will take this into account when negotiating your settlement.
3. They’ll demand compensation.
