Categories of Individuals Injured in a Lyft Accident

There are a few different scenarios in which you might have been injured in a Lyft accident while in Saugus. It is important to understand your individual role in the accident because that will largely influence how you can receive financial compensation, and which parties you can hold accountable. Below is a brief list of the main categories of individuals that might be involved in an accident with a Lyft.

• The passenger of a Lyft ride at the time of the accident;
• The driver of the Lyft vehicle involved in the accident;
• The driver or passenger of another vehicle involved in the accident with the Lyft;
• The owner of any property damaged in the accident (including private property).

Regardless of the role that you played in the accident, Walch Law can help you!

Call our office today to learn how!

Critical Elements in a Lyft Accident

The circumstances of your accident will play an important role in how you recover financially. Some of these important elements include the following:

1. Whether or not the driver of the Lyft vehicle was logged in on the app when the accident occurred. If the driver was conducting personal business and was not logged into the app, you likely won’t deal with Lyft’s insurance department at all. In this situation, you would deal primarily with the personal insurance of the Lyft driver. However, if the driver was logged into the app when the accident happened, you will likely work with Lyft’s insurance department along with the driver’s personal insurance.
2. If the Lyft driver was logged into the app at the time of the accident, the status of their rideshare is important to your case. They will usually be (1) seeking a rider, (2) on their way to pick a rider up, or (3) taking a passenger to their intended destination.
3. Who was liable for causing the accident. This helps to establish how much the Lyft driver contributed to the accident, and how much you contributed. If the other party was negligent (texting, eating, distracted, etc.) when they caused the accident, that is an additional element that one of our expert attorneys can help you establish during your free consultation!
