Practice areas/Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) Accidents

Houston Uber & Lyft Accident Attorneys

We know Uber's and Lyft's insurance playbook — inside and out.

Why this case matters in Houston

Rideshare crashes involve layered insurance: the driver's personal policy, the app's contingent policy, and — while a passenger is in the car — a $1,000,000 commercial policy. Uber and Lyft train their adjusters to shift claims into the smallest coverage tier possible. We know how to prove which app-period was active and unlock the right coverage.

Common causes we investigate

Distracted rideshare driver

Managing the app, pickup pings, and directions on Bagby, Main, or Kirby.

Fatigued driving

Late-night shifts around Midtown, EaDo, and downtown Houston bars.

Third-party driver at fault

Another motorist hits the Uber or Lyft you're riding in.

Unsafe pickup/drop-off

Stopping in traffic lanes or hazardous locations.

Damages we pursue

  • Medical bills, ER, and follow-up treatment
  • Lost income and gig-work impact
  • Pain, suffering, and mental anguish
  • Property loss (phones, belongings, luggage)

Questions we get asked

Am I covered if I was a passenger?+

Yes. Once you accept the ride, Uber's or Lyft's $1M commercial policy applies. We help you access it.

What if I was the rideshare driver?+

You may still have coverage — from the app, the at-fault driver, and your own policy. We coordinate all three.
