Common causes include:

  • Distracted driving

  • Poor vehicle maintenance

What to Do After a Rideshare Accident in Victoria

After a rideshare accident, your health, safety, and legal rights all matter. Taking certain steps can help protect them, and our team can guide you through both immediate and long-term challenges. 

If you've been in a rideshare accident, it's best to:

  • Call 911: This allows you to call the police to the scene to make a report and to get help from emergency services.
  • Get medical care promptly: Even injuries that feel mild should be checked. 
  • Gather what information you can: If possible, note the Uber or Lyft driver’s name and insurance details, witness contacts, and take photos of the scene vehicles, and any injuries. Be sure to also screenshot ride confirmations and any other important in-app information pertaining to your ride.
  • Report the accident to the rideshare company: Report the accident to Uber or Lyft on their app.

    “I was impressed with Jim's guidance and support.”
    Jim has provided legal counsel for me in several situations. I felt well-represented in a very professional way. The most difficult one was when I broke my neck in a car wreck. The insurance of the responsible party did not want to pay anything close to the amount I felt they owed. Jim led me through the process. It was a difficult case, but we settled during negotiations. I was impressed with Jim's guidance and support, and I was very pleased with the settlement. He is a great attorney!

    “Best Attorneys in Victoria”
    A little over a year ago, I was in a car accident of no fault of my own. Initially, the person's Insurance company was ok with me. They took liability and told me to take my car to get it fixed. They also informed me they were sending a check for the repair and gave me a rental. After three days, they called and said they were voiding the check and totaling my car! My car had been at the repair shop and was 90% ready. I was SO stressed out, crying, and had no idea what to do! I went to see Luther Easley. I explained the situation to him, and he assured me he would handle it all for me. He gave me such peace of mind immediately. I cannot express the relief I had knowing he was handling everything for me. Luther was kind, patient, and very informative of each step he was taking regarding my case. He was honest, open, and upfront about everything. He never sugar-coated anything. It wasn't about the money for me, but Luther Easley was able to make them repair my vehicle AND won a substantial settlement for me. God forbid you were ever in a car accident or any other kind of accident, but if so, I would highly recommend Luther Easley at Cole Cole Easley Sciba Law Firm. He was the best! Also, his assistant, Donna, was so nice to deal with! The entire staff was very kind and professional! I know everyone thinks lawyers are just out to take your money, but in my situation, I was so grateful to have Luther Easley as my lawyer! He DESERVED and EARNED every penny! I would have been screwed without him; for lack of better words! Thank you, Luther Easley, and kudos to you! You truly are one of the best attorneys in Victoria!
