Plano Lyft Accidents Attorneys

Lawyers for Lyft Accident Compensation in Plano, TX

If you recently booked a Lyft service and did not reach your destination safely, or a Lyft driver caused a crash with you or a loved one, you need help from experienced personal injury lawyers for your legal claim. At Burress Injury Law, we allow clients to focus on healing their minds and bodies while we take care of everything else. We maintain a winning percentage of over 99.9%, have tried 500 plus cases and have handled thousands more, including many against ride share companies like Lyft and Uber. Our mission is to obtain full value compensation from all at fault parties and their insurance companies, including money for economic damages (past and future lost wages and medical expenses) and non-economic damages (pain, impairment, loss of enjoyment of life, mental anguish, loss of services, loss of spousal and/or parental consortium, disfigurement, etc.)

What Are My Options After a Lyft Accident?

Following an accident in which a Lyft driver was at fault, we leave no stone unturned. We effectively and efficiently obtain full value proceeds through settlement or verdict from all possible sources. Depending on your circumstances, we often pursue claims against:

• The Lyft company’s insurance provider
• Your Lyft driver’s personal insurance provider
• The insurance provider of any other party who is partially or totally responsible for the crash
• Your own insurance provider

With that said, issues related to insurance claims can become very complicated in the aftermath of a Lyft accident, because there are so many policies in play (and different components and amounts of coverage depending on the phase of the ride share). As a result, each insurance provider may attempt to avoid liability by laying the blame on another party and stating that a different provider is responsible for providing coverage. Thankfully, the highly qualified, experienced team at Burress Injury Law is well aware of how such scenarios tend to play out, and we are prepared to do what is necessary to maximize your compensation, regardless of how stubborn any particular insurer chooses to be.

When Do You Need to Act?

Every civil lawsuit filed in state court is subject to a statute of limitations. These statutes of limitations are restrictions placed on a person's ability to seek remedies via the courts. In Texas, victims of auto accident injuries typically have two years after the date of the crash in question to file a lawsuit. Even though two years may seem to be a long time, it can pass very quickly. Our team needs to get to work right away in order to preserve the evidence (scene evidence, vehicle evidence including black box, Lyft app and infotainment data, witness interviews while memories are fresh) that can be critical to your case. The greatest claim value creator in a client’s case is when they hire us to protect their interests within a week of the incident.
