Understanding How Uber Insurance Works After a Hicksville, NY, Injury Collision

When their driver causes an accident, Uber provides insurance coverage for victims, including passengers, other drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. How much coverage is available depends on several factors, including what the Uber driver was doing on the rideshare app at the time of the crash and where the ride originated.  Once the Uber driver accepts a ride request and is en route to pick up a passenger or during the trip, Uber’s insurance coverage provides at least $1,250,000 in third-party liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage if the accident originated outside the five boroughs of New York City. Rides originating within the City of New York will most often have a maximum limit of $100,000 in coverage. 

Let Our Hicksville Attorneys Handle Your Uber Accident Case

As experienced rideshare car accident attorneys on Long Island, our team knows how to develop compelling cases and recover appropriate compensation for accident victims with serious injuries, even in complex cases. We will manage your accident claim, including protecting your rights and handling all communication with the other parties for you. Let us investigate what happened, identify the liable party, and gather the necessary evidence to recover the money you need and deserve to manage your injuries and heal. We will call in experts as necessary to support your personal injury claim and file a lawsuit when needed to recover an appropriate payout. New York sets a statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit under New York Civil Practice Laws & Rules § 214. We must ensure we meet this and any other applicable deadlines to protect your rights.  It is also very important to note that a shorter statute of limitations may apply to your situation, depending upon the circumstances of your case. It is best to take advantage of a free case review with our firm so that you know exactly what deadlines you are facing and what your best options for legal action are.
