TACOMA WA RIDESHARE ACCIDENT LAWYER (UBER & LYFT)

Injured in an Uber or Lyft Accident in Tacoma?

Whether you were a rideshare passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian hit by an Uber or Lyft vehicle, the situation can be confusing. Who pays for your injuries? Which insurance company is responsible? What happens if the rideshare driver wasn’t even logged in?

At Morgan Hill PC, we assist injured clients in Tacoma with navigating complex cases. We understand how Uber and Lyft operate, and how their insurers attempt to avoid paying. Let us handle the legal stress so you can focus on healing.

Who Is Liable in a Rideshare Crash?

Figuring out liability in a rideshare accident is more complex than in a regular car crash. Depending on the situation, the responsible party might be:

• The Uber or Lyft driver
• Another negligent driver
• A commercial third party
• The rideshare company’s insurer (in some cases)

In Washington, Uber and Lyft classify their drivers as independent contractors. That means you need an attorney who knows how to hold both individuals and big companies accountable.

How Rideshare Insurance Works

Rideshare insurance coverage depends on the driver’s status when the crash occurs.

Our firm knows how to identify which coverage applies and how to pursue every possible source of compensation.

Common Scenarios We Handle

We represent clients injured in:

• Accidents as Uber or Lyft passengers
• Collisions caused by a rideshare driver
