Understanding Liability in Rideshare Accidents
Rideshare solutions like Uber and Lyft have been revolutionary for Las Vegas residents and visitors, who turn to the apps to save on costs and cut down on hassle. They’ve also significantly cut down on drunk driving accidents, which have historically been a big problem in Las Vegas.
However, with millions Uber and Lyft drivers in the United States—many of them part-time drivers—it’s not surprising that accidents involving rideshare drivers are on the rise.
If you’re involved in a rideshare accident, it’s important to understand liability, and who may be at fault.
Here are some special considerations for rideshare claims:
- Liability Coverage for Drivers – Major apps like Uber and Lyft offer special liability coverage for their drivers when they carry passengers which can help pay for damages to the driver and passengers.
- Contract Employment for Drivers – Rideshare drivers are hired as independent contractors, not traditional employees, which means rideshare drivers are generally liable for damages caused by an accident.
- App Usage – Under their contract, your rideshare driver has to use the app properly in order to be covered by Uber and Lyft’s liability coverage, which means they have to be logged in and have accepted your ride request.
Think your rideshare accident might not be your fault? We’ll investigate your case and prove liability so that the person (or people) who caused your accident is held accountable.
Maximizing Your Compensation
After a rideshare accident, you’ll have expenses you never anticipated, which could easily trigger a financial emergency for millions of Americans. Even an ambulance ride and basic emergency department treatment can cost thousands.
Here are some factors that determine the value of your claim and impact your compensation:
- Medical Expenses – Everything from emergency room visits to life-saving interventions, plus the cost of prescriptions and long-term treatment.
- Lost Income – This can include wages missed during recovery, reduced earning capacity, or even the permanent inability to work.
- Pain and Suffering – Includes physical pain, emotional trauma, mental anguish, and a reduced quality of life.
- Punitive Damages – In rare cases, compensation may be awarded to punish the liable party for extreme negligence, reckless conduct, etc.
The Anthem Injury Lawyers team will get to work on gathering all the evidence you need for a strong, winnable claim that helps you get the most compensation possible.
Driving Results with Compassion
As former insurance industry insiders, we know the insurance company’s tactics—and how to beat them at their own game. Here are the important steps to take after an accident to make sure you qualify for compensation:
- Call 911 immediately – Always report auto accidents to the police, even if they don’t seem that serious at the time
- Get medical attention – Your injuries may seem minor, but some of the most serious injuries can be internal
- Exchange information – Make sure to get names, license plates, and insurance information for everyone involved
- Document the scene – Use your phone to get pictures and videos of vehicles, injuries, signs, and road conditions
- Talk to witnesses – Get contact information for anyone who may have seen the accident occur
- Notify your insurance company – Report the accident, but don’t discuss how you’re feeling or who is at fault. Share basic details and information, and let them know you’ll be filing a claim soon
- Call Anthem Injury Lawyers – As your rideshare accident lawyers, we’re here to protect your rights and stay one step ahead of the insurance companies
The insurance companies will try to contact you right away and will pressure you to comply with their requests. Don’t sign anything or make any statements to the insurance company without us.
You Deserve an Advocate
Don’t be tempted to take on the insurance companies by yourself. They make their processes sound simple, but you can bet they have a team of attorneys on their side to protect their interests and maximize their profits. Insurance adjusters are known to pressure victims to accept lowball offers and to use shady negotiation tactics to minimize their payout.

- Conduct thorough investigations of accidents
- Collect abundant evidence of liability
- Work with experts to prove injuries and losses

- Protect your rights throughout the process
- Communicate with you effectively and proactively
Don’t let insurance companies fool you into accepting less than you deserve. The Anthem Injury Lawyers team knows every move in the insurance company’s playbook, so we can always stay one step ahead of them.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the statute of limitations to file a claim in Nevada?
The statute of limitations to file a personal injury claim in Nevada is 2 years from the date of the accident. It sounds like a lot of time, but the sooner you act, the stronger your case will be. Missing this deadline results in the loss of all rights to compensation.
Does it matter if the rideshare driver was on or off duty when the accident happened?
Yes, it can make a big difference. If the rideshare driver was on duty and logged into the app, the company’s commercial insurance may apply; if they were off duty, only the driver’s personal insurance is typically responsible.
Should I use the in-app accident reporting feature?
You can use the in-app reporting feature to document the incident, but avoid giving detailed statements or admitting fault. It’s best to contact Anthem Injury Lawyers first so we can guide you on what information to share and help protect your claim.
What if the other driver doesn’t have insurance?
You have options, including Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) coverage through your own policy. Our team will review your policy and explore all the options so you can recover as much as possible.
How much is my settlement worth?
Your settlement amount will be determined based on factors like injuries, medical costs, lost income, and more. Serious injuries often result in six-figure claims.
What if I’m partially at fault for the accident?
You may still be entitled to compensation if we can prove that you’re less than 51% at fault. It’s worth noting that your payout will be reduced based on your at-fault percentage.
Should I talk to the insurance company?
Always speak with your attorney before making a statement to the insurance company. They might seem like they’re on your side, but their business is their bottom line, and they will use your statements against you if they can.
How much does it cost to hire Anthem Injury Lawyers?
We’re committed to making high-quality legal counsel accessible to everyone. That’s why our contingency fees are significantly lower than the competition’s, with no upfront costs or payments. We only get paid when you win your settlement.
