SOUTHFIELD UBER AND LYFT ACCIDENT LAWYER
An accident that involves an Uber or Lyft vehicle can be more complicated than a regular car accident. This is because Rideshare accidents do not always clearly show who is reliable for the incident. Insurance for these personal vehicles that Uber and Lyft drivers use to transport others for a fee is not exactly the same as that for common vehicles that are not used to make money. The sad truth is plenty of Uber and Lyft drivers are not the safest individuals on the road, which leads to plenty of Rideshare-related car accidents. Luckily, Haque Legal is here to help in the aftermath of your Uber or Lyft accident in Southfield.

Trust us, no detail will be overlooked by our law firm when it comes to your auto accident involving an Uber or Lyft ride.

WHAT MAKES UBER AND LYFT ACCIDENTS COMPLICATED?
Unfortunately, the second a rideshare driver turns on their app to start work, any accident they may encounter becomes increasingly more convoluted and complicated. There is a common misconception that every rideshare driver has his or her own auto insurance that applies to all rideshare activities. Nevertheless, the insurance for Lyft and Uber drivers is actually quite muddled. In fact, the specific level of coverage depends on what phase of the ride at which the accident occurs.
How We Will Handle Your Case
Our law firm will interact with opposing counsel, auto insurance providers, the judge, and another party that may be against you. This way, all you have to worry about is focusing on your recovery from the accident, and leaving the dealing with the insurance company and potentially at-fault driver to us. We review every single piece of evidence toward your claim, no matter how small or insignificant it might seem. When you call us for help with your Uber or Lyft accident, you can rest easy knowing that our ride-share accident lawyers will do everything in their power to get you the compensation you deserve.

WHAT ARE THE THREE PHASES OF A RIDESHARE RIDE?
The different phases of an Uber or Lyft ride are broken down into three different phases. The time of the car accident determines which phase of the ride the driver was in, and therefore, how the insurance company is going to handle it. The three phases of a rideshare ride are:
Phase Zero
Phase zero is when the Uber or Lyft driver app has yet to be activated. In such an instance, the driver’s own personal auto insurance will apply, meaning the rideshare business has no liability. As a result, potential financial compensation will be limited by that driver’s personal automobile insurance limits.
Phase I
Phase I of rideshare insurance is triggered when the driver’s app is activated or is waiting for the request for a ride. This means that the driver has the intention of working using the Rideshare service and is beginning to use their phone and vehicle for the purpose of making money through the app.
Phase II
Phase II is triggered when the driver drives toward the rider to be picked up or is driving that individual. The rideshare driver has a third-party liability policy totaling a million dollars during this phase. This phase also has a million-dollar underinsured/uninsured motorist bodily injury policy. Our Southfield Uber and Lyft accident attorneys are here to dissect such details of insurance coverage and the law on your behalf while you zero in on recuperating after this unfortunate accident.
